Law enforcement officers will stake out the Dunkin’ Donuts rooftop at 104 West Central Entrance in Duluth to benefit Special Olympics Minnesota, Oct. 25. Duluth Police are a part of many events to help raise money for charity, but their heart lies with Special Olympics Of Minnesota.

Like I said, on October 25th, beginning at 6:30 a.m. through 12:30 p.m. police officers stake out the rooftop of the Dunkin’ Donuts on Central Entrance. According to a press release from the City of Duluth and Duluth Police, this stunt is to heighten awareness and raise money for the Law Enforcement Torch Run® (LETR) for Special Olympics Minnesota. This event will be rain or shine.

 Each guest who visits a Cop on a Rooftop location that day and makes a donation will receive a Free Medium Hot or Iced Coffee coupon, Duluth Police encourage everyone to stop by and give for opportunities for special needs kids and adults throughout the state.

Police across the state have been raising money for Special Olympics of Minnesota for over 30 years.  According to a City and Police Press Release: The LETR is the largest grass-roots fundraising program and public awareness vehicle for Special Olympics. Law enforcement officers from the 50 United States, 12 Canadian provinces and territories and 44 other countries carry the Flame of Hope™ in honor of Special Olympics athletes.
