Three people were injured in the explosion at Argenta Hall, according to Washoe County Sheriff's Office spokesman Bob Harmon. The injuries were categorized as green-level injuries, which indicates that they are not life-threatening.

"The university is taking the lead on it but (the Washoe County Sheriff's Office) came out to help if needed," Harmon said. "We want to make sure everyone's safe; that's our first priority."

Multiple agencies have responded to the incident, including the Washoe County Sheriff's Office, the Reno and Sparks police departments, the Reno Fire Department and the Nevada Highway Patrol.

An arrest has been made in connection with the July 2018 death of one-time Mouseketeer Dennis Day.  It was clearly a case of homicide.


Burda was a handyman who did work around the house Day lived in with husband Henry “Ernie” Caswell. Burda at one point stayed at the house in exchange for work for the couple, according to the Phoenix Police Department. But Day eventually told a friend that Burda had hurt him. Day and the friend planned to report the incident to police, but Day disappeared shortly after.

Burda has an extensive criminal history, including convictions for robbery, assault and trespassing.
