Wanna Have a Cup of Joe with a Cop?

If you could sit down with a cop and over a cup of coffee, ask him anything you’d like, what would it be?

You’ll have that chance in a week, when San Clemente hosts “Coffee with a Cop” from 8 to 10 a.m. Feb. 12 at Ellie’s Table, located in North Beach at 120 West Avenida Pico.

Coffee with a Cop is a national initiative supported by the United States Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Similar events are being held across the country, as local police departments, sheriff’s offices and state police forces strive to make lasting connections with the communities they serve, according to a San Clemente press release.

And just for showing up, the sheriff’s deputies won’t even ticket you. . Complimentary street-metered parking (excluding the train station parking lot) will be offered for this event during 8-10 a.m.

So as much as you want to hang out with a cop, don’t linger.
