Police search for man shot, handcuffed, by security guard

Authorities are searching for a man who reportedly fled after being shot in the leg and handcuffed by a private security guard in downtown Reno.

Police say the security guard at the closed Sundowner Hotel tried to detain the man for trespassing early Thursday morning. They say a physical confrontation occurred and the security guard fired several shots at the man, striking him once in the leg.

Police say the man escaped when the security guard left to get help. The suspect is described as being a white male in his 20's with a medium build.
