Las Vegas man arrested in Henderson tavern shooting

A man wanted in connection with an early Tuesday shooting at a Henderson bar has been arrested.

Bryce Brewer, 23, was arrested in his Las Vegas home about 5 p.m. Tuesday without incident. He faces six felony counts each of discharging a gun into an occupied structure and assault with a deadly weapon.

Just after 12:32 a.m. Tuesday, Henderson police responded to the PKWY Tavern at 445 Marks St., for reports of approximately six shots fired into the building, the Police Department said in a statement Wednesday. No one was injured during the shooting.

Brewer is suspected of shooting into the bar after being asked to leave after causing a disturbance while he was intoxicated, police said.

Police said a handgun believed to be the gun used in the shooting was found at Brewer’s home during the arrest. He is being held at the Henderson Detention Center.
