Kids and their parents are being invited to trick-or-treat at the Danbury Police Station this evening. 

Danbury Police Community Services Division Commanding Officer Lt. Vincent Daniello says they have teamed up with the Police Activities League to serve the youth of the community.  In addition to candy for trick-or-treaters, and because the event is outside, police will be handing out hot chocolate. 

Daniello says this is the first time they're holding the event but hope to continue it in the future.

The Halloween event is from 4pm to 6pm. 

Police are reminding trick-or-treaters to be bright at night, look before crossing a street and to go out in groups.  Young children should always be accompanied by an adult and older trick-or-treaters should let a parent know their planned route.
