Coffee with Cops

McDonald's teamed up with the Austin Police Department to give people the opportunity to have coffee with members of APD and Chief Art Acevedo.

It's the first time McDonald's of Central Texas is joining forces with Austin police for the event. The event is going on at Capital Plaza in Downtown Austin.

The focus of the event is community engagement. It's a chance for people to interact with officers working in their neighborhood by having coffee and breakfast while helping build and establish trust to fight crime.

Chief Acevedo attended as well to answer questions about law enforcement and safety. 

The event was from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m.
