About this listen

 On August 6, police reported a missing person incident involving 17-year-old Abigail Prewitt last seen in Henderson. Authorities urge anyone with information regarding Abigail’s whereabouts to contact local law enforcement immediately, as she may remain in the area or possibly travel to Oregon. Law enforcement are seeking public assistance in this case.

During the previous week, a multi-agency operation in coordination with the Henderson Police Department resulted in the arrest of eight individuals on felony charges of alleged luring of a child with a computer for a sex act. The operation, conducted by the Nevada Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the FBI’s Child Exploitation Task Force, focused on online child exploitation within Henderson city limits. All suspects were booked into the Henderson Detention Center or Clark County Detention Center. The case remains active, and detectives urge anyone who may have information about these crimes or believes they may be a victim of the arrested individuals to contact the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force at 702-828-3111 or leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.

Throughout the week, Henderson public safety officials did not publicly disclose any additional major incidents involving violent crime, robbery, or large-scale property crimes, according to currently available information.

This week’s activity indicates a significant focus on crimes involving juveniles—both as victims in missing persons cases and potential online exploitation. Listeners are encouraged to monitor their children’s online behavior, reinforce safe digital practices, and promptly report any suspicious activity.

If you witness a crime or have information to provide about an ongoing case, call Henderson police at 702-267-5000 for non-emergencies or 911 in an emergency. For tips regarding child exploitation or missing juveniles, contact Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.
