Police information officer Shanice Gonzales said the event is a spinoff of Coffee with a Cop, which got a start in Hawthorne, California, in 2011. Adopted in 2016 by FPD, they have partnered with local businesses for quarterly open forums. In December 2022, they held Pop with a Cop<\/a>, hosted by Pop Drinks.<\/p>\n

Gonzales said their District Coordinator Unit hosts these events with the full unit in attendance. Other officers and units are encouraged to participate.<\/p>\n

The mission of the events is to break down barriers between police officers and residents. It creates an opportunity for the community and police officers to meet in a neutral space to discuss community issues and build relationships.<\/p>\n
