Oregon Officer Caught Forewarning Group of Armed White Men on Avoiding Arrest Before Curfew Begins: ‘My Command Wanted Me To Come Talk To You Guys’

An Oregon police chief issued an apology after an officer was caught giving a group of armed white men a heads-up about how to skirt curfew enforcement.

The conversation was part of a longer video filmed on June 1 in Salem, Oregon, during a protest against police brutality, according to The Salem Reporter.

In the video, an unidentified Salem Police officer warned a group of white men clutching assault rifles about an impending curfew.

Salem Police Chief Jerry Moore apologized for the officer’s words in a video statement on Friday.

Moore said the officer “had not been fully briefed about enforcement of the curfew before he spoke with the group.”
