Bail of $500,000 was set Wednesday in Henderson, Nevada, for alleged would-be mass shooter Allison Howlett, a male transitioning to female.
KSNV reported that Allison is married to Julie Howlett.
Police indicated that both Allison and Julie are “transitioning to female and are taking estrogen and progesterone.”
8NewsNow noted that Allison was arrested on Saturday “after refusing to exit her car while armed with multiple firearms in the Sunset Station garage.”
Julie had told police that Allison was allegedly making threats, including “suicide by cop,” and claimed Allison had stolen her car.
She also “alleged that Howlett would frequently put on body armor, grab a rifle, and tell her partner to take her to a homeless shelter, alluding to the idea of shooting homeless people.”
Henderson Police Chief Reggie Rader explained that police found “at least 22 firearms” in the car that Allison was driving.
These included “a handgun in the driver’s seat and a rifle in the backseat.”
FOX 5 Vegan pointed out police recovered “hundreds of rounds of ammunition from the vehicle” too.
