LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – Law enforcement is investigating after an explosive device was reportedly used during a youth church event in Henderson Wednesday night.

The letter stated, “Apparently, some outside person threw a device that caused an explosion in the gymnasium of the Arrowhead building.” A juvenile who was present at the time of the incident provided a photo to FOX5, showing the damage on the gym floor.
