Spokane Mayor Nadine Woodward has ordered flags at all city facilities to remain lowered at half-staff to coincide with Gov. Jay Inslee’s directive that state and U.S. flags at all state agency facilities remain lowered on Tuesday, Aug. 4, in remembrance of Bothell Police Officer Jonathan Shoop.

On Monday, July 13, Officer Shoop was fatally shot following a car chase that began when officers attempted to pull over a driver who refused to stop. Mayor Woodward encourages anyone with a flag outside of their home or business to join us in this recognition to honor Officer Shoop’s memory.

There will be a memorial service on Tuesday, Aug. 4, 11 a.m., in Bothell and will be limited to 200 attendees.
