Kobyn McClure, 16, of Sandy, Oregon, was killed on May 31, 2026, during a domestic violence–related shooting that began with a report of a disturbance on Evans Street. Authorities say the suspected gunman, Bryan Andrew Moore, lived at the home with Jenna Mary Overson, 37, and her mother, 70-year-old Mary Beth Overson; both women were shot and killed. Moore allegedly barricaded himself inside the residence and repeatedly fired at law enforcement. Sandy Police Sergeant Garrett Thornton was struck multiple times and seriously wounded but was reported to be recovering.

Kobyn was shot at a nearby residence and had no known relationship to Moore. Family and friends said Kobyn had been trying to protect children during the violence; two people were inside the home during the standoff — Moore’s three-year-old son and Jordan Schubert, 20, who were not physically harmed. Moore was taken into custody and initially arraigned June 1, 2026; a 17-count indictment followed. He pleaded not guilty and remained held without bail.

Kobyn’s death prompted public gatherings at Sandy High School and outside his family’s home, where neighbors described him as kind, loyal, protective, and quick to help others. A memorial at the family’s home included flowers, candles, cowboy hats, toy cars, and items he liked. Does anyone who knew Kobyn or was in that area on May 31 have information that could help clarify what happened that afternoon?
