On Oct. 31, five individuals were reportedly denied entry to the party after they resisted the host's attempt to pat them down for security reasons, FOX 5 reported. The individuals, described only as Hispanic, left but returned later in a vehicle and fired into the home. They were not seen again, the station reported.
Gomez first joined the Nevada National Guard in September 2018, serving as a specialist. Her last duties included a volunteer effort to help the local community with its COVID-19 response, Gen. Troy Armstrong said Tuesday, according to the report.

"Corporal Gomez was not just a cherished family member, or a college student who was studying to be an educator in our community, or an outstanding citizen," Armstrong said. "[Gomez] was a courageous warrior who served our nation, our communities and our state with nothing less than absolute honor and distinction."
