"The mission of Coffee with a Cop," the department's flier said,  "is to break down the barriers between police officers and the residents they serve by removing agendasand allowing opportunities to ask questions, voice concerns, and get to know the officers in your community."

The first event will be from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. Wednesday at the Magnolia Bakery and Cafe, located at 5175 South Old Peachtree Road in Peachtree Corners.
