Officers moved family members to a safe location. They tried to communicate with Kemp from a safe distance and began de-escalation efforts, including a high-risk stop to direct him out of his vehicle and away from any weapons.
After a brief period of communication, Kemp drove his pickup truck away from the officers. Instead of fleeing, he circled back toward them, striking multiple police vehicles and almost running over several officers. He then continued driving on the property and intentionally rammed the passenger side of a sergeant’s patrol car.
The sergeant got out of his vehicle and deployed his patrol rifle. Kemp crashed his truck into a Conex box and other property. The sergeant then fired his patrol rifle, striking Kemp.
Officers kept communicating with Kemp for an extended period, and he was taken into custody without further injury to anyone. He was treated at an area hospital and then booked into the Oklahoma County Jail.
Per the department, he is held on three counts of assault and battery with a deadly weapon after former conviction of a felony, two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon, two counts of pointing a firearm after former conviction of a felony, one count of possession of a firearm after former conviction, and three counts of malicious destruction of property after former conviction of a felony. He is held on a $1 million bond.
The sergeant was placed on routine administrative leave pending the conclusion of the investigation. No finding on the use of force has been published.
