On October 17, 2023, at approximately 11:30 am Corvallis Police Officers responded to Cheldelin Middle School at 987 NE Conifer Blvd for a report of a student on the roof. An officer and a member of the C.O.R.E. (Crisis, Outreach, Response, and Engage) team talked with the student trying to convince him to come down and diffuse the situation. A fire truck with a ladder was summoned so the student could come down safely, however the student eventually got off of the roof without the ladder and ran from police in the direction of the Jackson Frazier Wetland.
