RE:                  Threat to Lincoln City Cultural Center

On Saturday, September 13, 2025, the Lincoln City Police Department received a threat of a mass shooting at the Lincoln City Cultural Center.  At the time of the call LCPD Officers responded to the Cultural Center, secured the area, and evacuated the building for the safety of the participants.

On further investigation, it was determined there was no current danger to the public. The Lincoln City Police Department is still investigating the caller and will release further information when the investigation concludes.

Oregon has criminal statutes which address these incidents such as Initiating a False Report, or Disorderly Conduct in the First Degree.

LCPD would like to thank the Lincoln City Cultural Center, the Oregon State Police, and the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office for their assistance in this case.
