Hickory Hills Cops Stake Out DD Rooftops For Special Olympics

HICKORY HILLS, IL — Hickory Hills police will be staking out the rooftops of Dunkin' Donuts to raise money and awareness for Special Olympics Illinois athletes. The Illinois Law Enforcement Torch Run Cop On A Rooftop event runs from 5 a.m. to noon Friday, May 17.

Each guest who visits a Dunkin' Cop on a Rooftop location and makes a donation to the Illinois Law Enforcement Torch Run will receive a free classic donut coupon. Guests who donate at least $10 will receive an Illinois Law Enforcement Torch Run travel mug (while supplies last) and a coupon for a free medium hot coffee.

Hickory Hills' finest will be camped out on the roof of Dunkin' Donuts at 7847 W. 94th St.

Last year, a mysterious anonymous donor in a Rolls Royce wrote out a check for $25,000 for the Special Olympics at one of Palos Park PD's Cop On A Rooftop stakeouts.

More than 310 law enforcement agencies in Illinois plan to participate in Friday's Cop On A Rooftop events, with a goal of surpassing last year’s total of more than $871,000. Visit Special Olympics Illinois for a complete list of participating police departments and Dunkin' Donuts locations.
