REMEMBERING CHIEF DAN DUNCAN

On May 20, 2010, Chief Dan Duncan died at home in his sleep of an apparent heart attack. Chief Duncan brought integrity to the Lake Oswego Police Department and the police profession. He was a friend and mentor to all of us at the police department, and he taught us how to build trust and confidence in the public we serve.

This loss is definitely felt by the police department, the community of Lake Oswego, and the law enforcement profession as a whole. Chief Duncan has left quite a legacy for this department and community, and we will honor his memory by continuing to provide the high level of quality service to our citizens that they have come to expect.

OFFICER´S ADVICE

Move Over, America!

The Lake Oswego Police Department would like to remind you to "move over" when you see an emergency vehicle off to the side of the road with its emergency lights flashing. Motorists are required to move over to the lane away from the emergency vehicle. If you can't change lanes because of traffic, or if you are traveling on a two-lane roadway, then reduce your speed and carefully drive past the vehicle.
