LAS VEGAS, Nev. (702 Times, NV Globe) – The search is on for 26-year-old Anthony Bell, who allegedly pulled a rifle and “advanced” on a security guard and another man outside the Pahrump Nugget on December 4.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, there was a fight at the bar, and Bell went outside to his truck. Another man and security are said to have followed him.
