Chapel Hill Police Department

Coffee with a Cop is a great way for us to connect with the community we serve. Talk this morning at Sutton's was all about the Carolina Hurricanes and the Stanley Cup Finals starting tonight! Go Canes!

Sgt. Sauer is teaching our newest Guardians of the Hill, Cadets Witkowski, Wilson, and Bianco, and Officer Edmondson, handcuffing techniques in our fully-equipped gym today.

Not all training starts in the academy. At CHPD, we believe in investing in our people before they ever step foot in BLET. Our newest recruits are already putting in the work in our training center, leaning the fundamentals, and building the skills they'll carry throughout their careers.

Interested in a department that values training, growth, and professional development from day one? Check out the link in the comments.

This Carolina Hurricanes Stanley Cup run has been something special and we got the chance to be Honor Guard for Game 2 of the Canadiens series. Anyone got a spare ticket for Game 5?

Rain or shine it's an honor every year to carry the torch as part of Special Olympics NC!

If you would like to purchase a shirt, hat, or both with proceeds going to Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics North Carolina stop by the front desk at Chapel Hill Police Department headquarters.

Many thanks to Wegmans for helping us put on this great event. Durham Police Department you're up!
