It is with deep sorr

It is with deep sorrow that we honor the passing of Commander Scott Aaron of the @oxnardpolice Department, who tragically passed away in the line of duty while attending a training assignment in Orange County on January 9, 2026.

Commander Aaron served with distinction since 2004 and was promoted to Commander in 2025. His dedication, professionalism, and compassion left a lasting impact on his colleagues and the community he proudly served.

Our hearts go out to his family, friends, and co-workers during this incredibly difficult time.

He will be remembered with respect, gratitude, and admiration.
