An Oregon police chief issued an apology after an officer was caught giving a group of armed white men a heads-up about how to skirt curfew enforcement.
The conversation was part of a longer video filmed on June 1 in Salem, Oregon, during a protest against police brutality, according to The Salem Reporter.
In the video, an unidentified Salem Police officer warned a group of white men clutching assault rifles about an impending curfew.
Salem Police Chief Jerry Moore apologized for the officer’s words in a video statement on Friday.
Moore said the officer “had not been fully briefed about enforcement of the curfew before he spoke with the group.”
