AG Ford warns businesses of price gouging during Hawk Fire RENO, Nev. (KOLO) - Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford is issuing another warning to businesses over price gouging. Nevada Governor Joe Lombard has issued a state of emergency for Washoe County, which has burned around 15,000 acres and is 27% contained as of Monday afternoon. “My office has received reports of price gouging in areas impacted by the Hawk Fire.

This includes excessive price increases for essentials such as lodging, food and gas,” said Attorney General Ford. “These protections apply to areas impacted by the Hawk Fire. Our office takes these reports seriously, and we will take any necessary actions to ensure Nevada residents impacted by this terrible fire are not further victimized by bad actors. If you believe you have experienced price gouging in an affected area, please file a complaint with my office.” Copyright 2026 KOLO. All rights reserved.
