Red Rock Search and Rescue received a 4-wheel drive truck thanks to NV Energy.

On Friday, NV Energy presented Red Rock Search and Rescue with a 2007 Ford F350 Service Body 4x4 to aid in its mission. While no longer suitable for daily use by NV Energy, the vehicle is well maintained and capable of many more miles of use.

Red Rock Search and Rescue helps locate missing people, including lost children and the elderly in Nevada, as well as Utah. It is a 100 percent volunteer search and rescue team, which is powered solely by donations and sponsors from the community.

The organization is comprised of nearly 200 members including emergency medical technicians, retired military and off-duty police officers.
