Middletown residents gathered Tuesday night, Aug. 1, for free food and fun activities that celebrated the local police department.
Middletown Police Chief Rodney Muterspaw said the 17th annual event was more than a way for the police and community to interact.

“It’s just a chance to come out and meet your law enforcement personnel and people in the community, whether it’s businesses or schools. Everybody’s out here tonight. It’s the place to be.”

The event typically attracts 3,000 to 4,000 people, according to Muterspaw. He estimated that as many as 5,000 people were expected this year.
Helping to attract crowds may have been the addition of free entertainment, including a showing of the movie “Sing!”
