LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nevada's governor was pulled over by a Las Vegas police officer in May for allegedly failing to stop at a red light before making a right turn in his pickup truck. He wasn't ticketed after identifying himself.
"I'm Joe Lombardo," he said as the officer arrived at the passenger-side window, police body camera video obtained by The **** ociated Press shows.
Gov. Lombardo was pulled over May 15 by an officer from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the agency Lombardo led as sheriff for eight years. The officer walks up to the passenger side of a light-gray Ford pickup truck and says, "Hello, how are you doing, sir?" according to the video.
Lombardo is in the driver's seat, with his wife Donna Lombardo in the passenger seat.
The officer begins to explain the reason for the stop, and Lombardo interrupts to say, "I'm Joe Lombardo." The officer says, "I'm aware," and continues to explain the stop was initiated because he did not see Lombardo stop at a red light before making a right turn.
