Kansas State Patrol in Las Vegas

1/27/2026

Nevada DMV's Compliance Enforcement Division hosted Kansas State Patrol's (KSP) Troop B Motor Vehicle Enforcement investigators in Las Vegas this week to collaborate, exchange ideas, and improve the effectiveness of both states' stolen vehicle programs. While in Las Vegas, the combined investigator teams: exchanged ideas and techniques on Day 1, recovered 2 stolen vehicles and a stolen engine at a Nevada DMV VIN Inspection Station on Day 2, and completed an undercover social-media buy of a stolen vehicle resulting in an arrest on the 3rd day.  
  
Captain Craig Phillips said, "We appreciate J.D. (Decker), the top-notch Nevada team and AAMVA for putting this all together to create an excellent learning and collaboration environment. Both of our units will benefit from working with each other, and others, across state lines."
