Shot fired outside Cimarron-Memorial High School in Las Vegas

No one was injured when a shot was fired just outside Cimarron-Memorial High School shortly after dismissal Monday afternoon.

At least one gunshot was reportedly fired from a vehicle in the immediate vicinity of the high school about 1:45 p.m., Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Larry Hadfield said.

It is unclear what direction the shot was fired, Hadfield said, because no impact was found. But police said a cartridge case was recovered just off property from the 2301 N. Tenaya Way high school, which is just north of the Bettye Wilson Soccer Complex.

As of 4 p.m., police were still investigating.
