Trick-or-treating in El Paso just got a safety boost, thanks to the local police department's latest community outreach effort. On the eve of Halloween festivities, the El Paso Police Department (EPPD), alongside District 5 Representative Ivan Niño, transformed the Upper East Regional Command into a haven for the pint-sized goblins and ghouls with a pre-Halloween Trunk-or-Treat Safety Event. The gathering was a hit, with families joining in for an evening that combined the fun of Halloween with important safety tips.
The official EPPD social media channel captured the spirit of the event, bragging a bit, as they should, about the turnout and the joy it brought to local families. "Families enjoyed treats, games, and safety tips from officers and community partners, making it a fun and safe night for everyone," EPPD shared on their Facebook page. The post confirmed that this was just a starter before a full course of Halloween events hosted by the police department across the city.
The EPPD has signaled their community engagement is going strong, promising additional Halloween events in the coming days.
