In a tragic turn of events, an officer-involved shooting occurred in North Codorus Township, York County, Pennsylvania, on February 2, 2025. The incident, which took place in the 1800 block of Haar Road, has claimed the lives of three officers from the Northern York County Regional Police Department and the Sheriff's Office.
The shooting was reported around 2:10 p.m., prompting a response from multiple police and fire agencies. The area of Haar Road and Emig Road has been closed for the ongoing investigation, and the public is asked to avoid the area, as it remains active, though there is no current threat.
