Shots fired at casino guards

Two men fired shots at Texas Station hotel-casino security guards early today, North Las Vegas Police said.

No one was injured during the 3:30 a.m. shooting.

Two security guards were walking in the parking lot outside the casino at Rancho Drive and Lake Mead Boulevard when two men started shooting at them, Sgt. Joe Forti said.

Bullets struck a security officer's vehicle, which was parked in the lot, Forti said.

Police were looking for the two men today. One was described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 6, 150 pounds, and about 18 to 20 years old with a shaved head. The other, also Hispanic, was 5 feet 9, with a beard and mustache and a shaved head. They were last seen on foot running south from the casino, Forti said.
