about my sister how to tell her about our dog that died. metro says this is obviously not something they ever want to happen and can't apologize enough. officer larry hadfield/ i just want to make it clear that we're very sorry to the persons in our community that are affected by this problem that we'er having and it's the sheriff's number one priority to get this fixed. 3-1-1 was down and people got a busy signal until it was resolved. as always... citizens are asked only to call 9-1-1 for true emergencies... life threatening situations and crimes in progress. a 26- year- old father shot and killed in front of his 4-year- old- daughter. tonight the man's loved ones held a vigil fox 5's miguel martinez-valle joins us live near green valley and sunset with how his loved ones are remembering the father. haney was shot and killed in this general area after police say he was trying to hand his daughter over to her mother... it was the mothers boyfriend that shot him 6 times

a follow up to a story we told you last night about a road rage situation caught on camera... where a driver is seen pointing a gun at a biker after he knocked on his window. the driver is sharing his side of the story with fox5... and says there's a lot more to this video. i felt surrounded and threatened, it was an issue. the driver of this red truck told us anonymously that nearly a dozen motorcyclists were riding around him on boulder highway. you see the second three minutes of it, there's about 3 or 4 minutes of what they didn't show motorcycles being erratic and causing issues in traffic. one of our guys went off the dirt the rider who filmed the incident and also wants to remain anonymous dust up involving another rider and a blue suv. nats of riders/blue suv hand signals, laughter and a back driver evident in didn't involve the red truck until- one of them leaned against my truck on the front of it, when he left he nudged the truck with his foot peg or

truck a little bit, and then he popped wheely's taking off and about wrecked right in front of my vehicle, and that undoubtedly is where it began. it's at that point, the driver who has a concealed weapons license is infuriated. when i get up to the next light the guy's got me distracted on the left hand side on the passenger side and then this other individual comes up knocking on my, beating on my passenger door get the gun why you flipping me off i didn't do nothing crossing traffic etc undoubtedly it startled me and i pulled my gun out and i was prepared for him, and it's just that simple. sot i didn't really think it was gonna escalate to what it did he said that your hand was on the trigger- yes it was, and it was there for a reason. if i had issues i was gonna use it. i have a concealed handgun license, i've been trained to use it and i will. both men accuse each other of provoking the other one- but in hindsight,

done differently that's literally the first time i've gone up to somebodys window in traffic like that and it will be the last if the same situation happened i'd pull it again. the driver of the red truck says he and his passengers filled out reports this morning with henderson police-as did the motorcycle rider. henderson police say they are investigating both sides, and so far, no charges have been filed. police are looking for a man who broke into a home, and the woman who acted as his get-a-way driver. take a look at these pictures... metro says back on january 14th, a man stole items from a house near north grand canyon drive and lone mountain road. he was seen in this car before and after the burglary, following around mail carriers in the area. police believe both suspects may be stealing from mailboxes. metro says the car is a mid 2000's lexus crossover s-u-v, and it was stolen from its owner. and check out these very clear pictures of a man police say robbed a bank on saturday. this was at village center circle near town
