Half-staff Flag Observance announced for SC

South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster orders that the flags on all state buildings be lowered to half-staff until further notice as a mark of solemn respect for the victims of the terrible act of violence perpetrated on law enforcement officers in Florence, South Carolina and as a tribute to the officers’ selfless service and sacrifice and incredible bravery in the line of duty. Governor McMaster requests that flags over buildings of the political subdivisions of the state similarly be flown at half-staff for this purpose.
