Kids from around the neighborhood got to live out their dreams of being police officers and firefighters Thursday night, as Shorewood cops and North Shore Fire Department opened up a few of their vehicles to the public at National Night Out.
Kids also had a blast using a NSFD fire hose to fight a simulated fire, as well as meeting the Glendale K9 police dog.
A number of other community organizations also participated in the event, which is designed to build relationships between police and the public and spread awareness of crime prevention measures.
