Attendance was high for the Pella Police Department’s second Coffee with a Cop.

Officers and communications staff with the department met with citizens at the Pella Hy-Vee Saturday morning.

Lt. Paul Haase appreciates community members who have engaged police in conversations about the community through the new program, and is thankful for the feedback they received.

“We get a lot of thank yous, that’s really the neatest thing of the whole event is the community coming out and thanking us, and that’s not our intention, but just one of those things that happens,” Haase says.

Haase says additional Coffee with a Cop events will be held in the near future.
