The University Circle Police Department transformed into a barber shop for a couple of hours this weekend.
The department collaborated with the Keratin Barber College to provide free haircuts for children and adults on Saturday.
According to University Circle Police Chief Tom Wetzel, the owner of the barber shop and four student barbers donated their time and talents to support the department’s community policing and youth outreach program.
“The Keratin Barber College is committed to continually working with community partners to bring about change and unity in our communities. We are proud to have the opportunity to work with the University Circle Police Department to impact citizens that they compassionately serve,” said Kelly Rice, Keratin Barber College. “For the UCPD, this was all about building bridges of trust with those we serve,” said Wetzel.
