'Slices 4 Safety' Connects Moorestown Police To Community

MOORESTOWN, NJ — For the second straight year, Moorestown police are finding a way to connect with the community through pizza. The police department’s second Slices 4 Safety campaign is currently underway, through June 30.

Officers are handing out tickets to children who are observed riding bikes with helmets, using crosswalks and sidewalks, wearing seatbelts, waiting for rides in well-lit areas, playing outside, and overall just being good kids.

These aren’t the typical tickets our officers normally issue. These tickets are worth one free slice of plain pizza fromCarollo’s Little Italy, 77 East Main Street.

“We are honored they are giving our patrol officers an opportunity to connect positively with local youth during their tour of duty,” the Moorestown Police Department said in a statement.

It is the second year Carollo’s is involved in the campaign, which was launched last year in a time of social unrest between police departments and communities across the country. Read more here: Slices 4 Safety: Moorestown Police Connect With The Community

“This is the time to remind the children in this area we appreciate them having fun while being safe,” police said. “Our officers will be on the lookout for opportunities to issue Slices 4 Safety Tickets.”
