FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
DECEMBER 28, 2025
LINDSAY, OK - On December 27, 2025, the Garvin County Sheriff's Office requested the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation to investigate an officer-involved shooting.
At around 7:30 p.m., Garvin County deputies executed a search warrant at a residence off State Highway 19, just east of Lindsay, regarding an individual in possession of a firearm after a felony conviction.
When deputies arrived at the home, they made contact with the adult male suspect, who brandished a firearm. When deputies attempted to provide commands, the suspect did not comply, resulting in an officer-involved shooting.
Deputies provided life-saving measures to the suspect, who was transported to a local hospital in stable condition. There were no other injuries during the altercation.
This is still an ongoing investigation. When the investigation is complete by OSBI special agents, the case will be provided to the District 21 District Attorney's Office, who will determine official charges.
The OSBI appreciates the Garvin County Sheriff's Office for their continued assistance with this investigation.
