Cops to Hit the Roof for Special Olympics

Dunkin' Donuts

Evansville Police officers and Vanderburgh County Sheriff's deputies will stakeout the roof of Dunkin' Donuts

You may notice police officers and sheriff’s deputies on the roof of an Evansville donut shop on Friday. WNIN’s John Gibson tells us why:

The Evansville Police Department and the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office will take part in the Special Olympics and Dunkin Donuts “Cops on a Rooftop” event.

The donut business is partnering with law enforcement and the Special Olympics of Indiana to raise money and awareness for the Torch Run and other Special Olympic events.

Officers and deputies will stakeout the roof of the new Dunkin Donuts location at 848 S. Green River Road, on Friday from 5:00 a.m. to noon.

The EPD says hundreds of officers are doing the same on Dunkin’ rooftops all over the U.S. to heighten awareness and raise money for the Special Olympics.

Guests who donate will receive a free donut coupon.

You can make your donation in the drive thru Friday morning via cash or Venmo.
