NORWICH – This Friday morning members of local law enforcement will team-up with the Norwich Dunkin’ Donuts for the sixth annual Cops on Top fundraiser benefitting Special Olympics athletes.

From 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 3 members of New York State Police, Chenango County Sheriff’s Office, and Norwich Police Department will join Special Olympic athletes and staff at the Norwich Dunkin Donuts, located at 5697 NY-12, seeking donations from customers of any amount.

100 percent of donations will go towards Special Olympics athletes.

New York State Trooper Jeremy Hicks, who has worked the event in years prior, said the Cops on Top event is something he looks forward to every year.

“It gives law enforcement a chance to help out with the Special Olympics, I think it’s a good thing,” said Hicks. “It makes people realize: cops don’t always write tickets and arrest people. We’re people too and this gives us a chance to give back, it’s good for us.”
