The Yakima Police Department (YPD) will host a Coffee with a Cop event on Wednesday, March 13^th, from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm. YPD’s Coffee with a Cop will be at Tom Tom Espresso at the Soda Fountain, 2105 Tieton Drive.

“The mission of Coffee with a Cop is to break down the barriers between police officers and the community they serve,” said Interim Police Chief Gary Jones. “It’s an opportunity for the public to ask questions and get to know their officers, building relationships one cup at a time.”

Next week’s Coffee with a Cop is being held in the evening to better accommodate those who are unavailable to participate during the daytime.

Contact YPD’s Community Services staff at 575-6197 for more information about the March 13^th Coffee with a Cop event.

YPD originally scheduled a Coffee with a Cop on February 5^th, but the event was canceled due to severe winter weather conditions.
