🇺🇸 FLAG DAY — JUNE 14, 2026 🇺🇸

Today, the Oregon Police Division proudly joins our community and our nation in celebrating Flag Day as we honor the Stars and Stripes — a symbol of freedom, unity, sacrifice, and the enduring spirit of America.

On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress adopted the official flag of the United States and for nearly 250 years, our flag has represented the courage of those who have defended our nation and the values that bring us together as Americans.

As you see Old Glory flying throughout our city today, we encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect on the freedoms we enjoy and the service and sacrifices made by generations of military members, first responders, and citizens who have helped preserve them.

From all of us at the Oregon Police Division, we wish you a safe and meaningful Flag Day. 🇺🇸

This was an isolated incident, and there is no ongoing threat to the public. In accordance with standard protocol for officer-involved shootings occurring within the City of Oregon, the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) has been requested to conduct the investigation. BCI maintains a specialized unit dedicated to investigating officer-involved shootings.

Additional information will be released as it becomes available and as appropriate.
