MPD Hosts Coffee With a Cop Events Across All Seven DC Police Districts Today

Washington DC

Published · Updated

Summary

  • Today is National Coffee with a Cop Day, and the Metropolitan Police Department is taking part with a coffee event in each of its seven police districts.
  • The national day started in 2011 in Hawthorne, California, when officers wanted a more personal way to meet residents, and it's now held across the country on the first Wednesday of October.
  • The idea is simple: show up, grab a coffee, and talk with the officers who work in your neighborhood. There's no agenda, and residents can ask questions or share concerns.
  • The events run from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at cafes and restaurants around the city, with times and locations varying by district.
  • Heading to a coffee event? Go LIVE to share the scene!
