On 06/05/2024, at approximately 07:15PM, NDPD Officers were dispatched to investigate a vandalism complaint at the Newberg Public Library. Responding officers were able to determine an unknown suspect(s) shot at least one projectile into a window which caused substantial damage. In addition to the vandalism, there were concerns the suspect(s) possibly had a biased intent because a pride flag was displayed directly behind the vandalized window. Due to the concerns of bias, this case was referred to NDPD Detectives.
On 06/07/2024, after a thorough investigation, detectives were able to identify the suspect to be a juvenile. The investigation determined the juvenile acted alone. The juvenile cooperated with detectives and was arrested. This case is being referred to the Yamhill County Juvenile Department for prosecution. Oregon law prohibits the release of identities for juvenile offenders.
Any further inquiries regarding this case should be referred to the Yamhill County Juvenile Department.
