Flags to fly at half-staff across Ohio

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – Flags across Ohio will be flying at half-staff starting Thursday at sunrise in honor of the victims in Wednesday’s mass shooting at a school in Minnesota.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, in accordance with a similar order issued by President Donald Trump, has ordered all Ohio and U.S. flags to be flown at half-staff on all public buildings and grounds across the state until sundown on Sunday, Aug. 31.

The order comes after two children were killed and 17 people were injured after a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis on Wednesday.
