Good morning, Oregon City.

Scott Alan Farmer, 58, made a non-emergency call early Friday, May 16, then his wife called 911 when he went outside with a loaded handgun, and after he fired at an officer who returned fire—he shot himself and died with police body cameras recording the incident.

Diana Helm, the former mayor of Damascus, was appointed Clackamas County Commissioner Monday after Melissa Fireside resigned in March due to a criminal investigation.

Helm—one of five finalists from 59 candidates—will serve until December 2026 with an election scheduled next year for the rest of the term.
