Washoe County Sheriff’s Office’s Forensic Science Division is having an open house April 24 from 8:30am to 4pm.

Visitors will get to see how a real lab works. Lab staff will show people how latent prints are developed, test for the presence of blood, get a DNA profile, determine whether a white powder is cocaine, and other types of testing.

There will also be an opportunity to solve a crime via a mock crime scene.

The lab is at 911 Parr Blvd. in Reno.

RSVP to (775) 328.2800.
