Have ’Coffee with a Cop’ today in downtown Hilo

Hawaii Police Department’s South Hilo Community Policing Section invites the public to join them for “Coffee with a Cop” from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. today at the downtown Hilo Starbucks, 438 Kilauea Ave.

This is a great opportunity for the community to meet and talk story with their district police officers over a cup of coffee.

Topics of conversation can range from sharing personal stories to answering questions and discussing neighborhood community issues.

Additional “Coffee With a Cop” events in Hilo are scheduled for next month as well, with one planned on Tuesday, May 16, at the Safeway Starbucks and one at the Starbucks adjacent to Prince Kuhio Plaza on Friday. Both Hilo events in May are from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
