Suspect in Child Lewd Acts Case Tased and Arrested by Edmond Police

On October 21, 2024, The Edmond Police Department (EPD) received a report of a man exposing himself to a little girl at a store in Edmond. Police shared his photo on social media, asking for help to identify him, and within just two hours, they received calls, reporting sightings of him in the same area. Officers arrived at Chick-fil-A, spotted the suspect, Jeffrey Osburn and asked him to come outside to get away from the people inside the restaurant.

Once outside, Osburn ran away with officers running right behind him. An officer in close reach was able to get Osburn down by using a taser. Osburn was arrested and booked into the Oklahoma County Detention Center on one count of Obstruction. Osburn later bonded it out. Detectives worked to positively identify Osburn as the suspect from TJ Maxx and obtain a warrant for his arrest. On December 19, 2024, the Edmond Police Department and the United States Marshals Service found and arrested Osurn on an outstanding felony warrant for lewd acts to a child under 16.
