This is what community policing looks like in Hillsboro. An officer on routine patrol, stopped by a group of kids.

We spend countless hours reviewing security camera footage looking for criminal activity. This week, at Central Park, we found something else entirely.

They wanted stickers. They got a rubber duck.

We are proud of the men and women of the Hillsboro Police Department.
