AURORA, IL — If you see cops standing on Dunkin' rooftops on one morning in mid-August, it's because they're raising money for Special Olympics Illinois.

Aurora police will be participating in Cops on a Rooftop from 5 a.m. to noon Friday. Officers will be staking out the roof at four Dunkin' locations across town: 444 N. Route 59, 2933 Kirk Road, 2380 South Eola Road and 1255 N. Farnsworth Ave.

At the annual fundraiser, customers who donate to the cause will be given a coupon for a free donut. Donors giving $10 or more will receive a coupon for a free coffee and a Law Enforcement Torch Run travel mug, while supplies last.
