The Bellefontaine Police Department hosted a Wednesday evening neighborhood outreach event at the Bellefontaine Apostolic Temple property at the corner of west Williams Avenue and Lawrence Street. The event is part of a summer series hosted by the police department to put officers in contact with youths, families and concerned residents in the city’s at-risk neighborhoods, funded by a grant through the United Way of Logan County.
