Lafayette Residents Invited to ‘Tip A Cop’ at Deano’s Pizza for a Great Cause

On Tuesday, May 7th, Lafayette locals have a unique opportunity to contribute to their community while enjoying a slice of their favorite pizza. The "Tip A Cop" event, hosted by the Lafayette Police Department, will take place at Deano’s Pizza, which has two convenient locations in Lafayette.

From 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., patrons can visit the 305 Bertrand Drive or 2312 Kaliste Saloom Road locations to participate in this special event.
