Some of Minot’s finest sat down for a cup of ‘jo with area residents Thursday for “Coffee with a Cop.”

It’s a program that takes place in hundreds of communities across the country.

These get-togethers give police a chance to bridge the gap with members of the Minot community.

“It benefits the police department in so much that it builds trust amongst the members of the public as well as just a friendly environment for police officers to interact with the members of the public,” said Sr. Officer Aaron Moss, Minot Police Department.

Thursday’s “Coffee with a Cop” took place at Broadway Bean & Bagel Co.

In the past, these events have taken place at other coffee shops around the Magic City.
