Oxford police post on Facebook
The Oxford Police Department posted a message on its official Facebook page, the department’s social media account shows. The post provided limited information, and the department did not provide additional details on the platform.
Oxford Police Department is the primary law enforcement agency for Oxford, Mississippi, a city in northern Mississippi that is home to the University of Mississippi. The department handles public safety, traffic enforcement and community policing for residents, students and visitors.
Police departments across the country regularly use social media to share timely information such as safety alerts, road closures and community notices. Social media posts can reach large local audiences quickly, but brief posts sometimes leave questions about context and next steps.
Because details in the department’s post were limited, officials have not provided further information to clarify the message. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
