Two police officers shot her 16 times during a confrontation. (Image: 8newsnow)Alvarado had a 9 mm handgun in her hand, as Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) officers repeatedly ordered her to drop the weapon, police said. She allegedly kept it aimed at officers. Two police officers then shot her a total of 16 times. She never fired a bullet during the confrontation, according to police.<\/p>\n<div class=\"callout\">\n<p>Alvarado allegedly took part in a robbery of a business near West Sahara Avenue with two other women shortly before the shooting. She fled in a stolen Mercedes-Benz that was being pursued at a high rate of speed by cops. The car later crashed into another vehicle on Stephanie Street.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Alvarado was a passenger in the car and darted out of the vehicle, then began running.<\/p>\n<p>One of the LVMPD officers chasing her ordered Alvarado to get rid of the gun in her hand.\u00a0Still holding the firearm, she turned toward two officers, the video revealed. Officer Justin Garcia, 26, and Officer Jacob Barr, 29, discharged their weapons.<\/p>\n<p>Police also released a body cam video of the shooting today.
