Get to know East Hawaiʻi police officers through casual conversation this week

East Hawai‘i residents are invited to attend three Coffee With a Cop events this week in Pāpa‘aloa, Hilo, and Volcano, to get to know their district police officers.

These popular events are intentionally informal with no agenda. Topics of conversation can range from sharing personal stories to discussing neighborhood issues.
