Logan County, West Virginia — Governor Patrick Morrisey has ordered that the United States and West Virginia flags at the State Capitol Complex and at all state facilities in Logan County be flown at half-staff from sunrise on October 30 to sunrise on October 31, in honor of Logan County Sheriff's Deputy Caden R. Mullins, who was killed in the line of duty on October 24.
The Governor's Office issued the order on October 30, saying the lowering is a tribute to Deputy Mullins.
