Kent Police are switching up its Coffee with the Chief to Vino with the 5-0.<\/p>\n
Chief Rafael Padilla will meet with residents from 5 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 20, at Reds Wine Bar, 321 Ramsay Way, at Kent Station, for an evening of casual conversation over light appetizers.<\/p>\n
There is no set agenda, rather it is an opportunity to chat it up and ask the questions you have wanted to ask the chief and officers.<\/p>\n
The slang term 5-0 refers to police and was taken from the hit television series “Hawaii Five-O” that aired on CBS from 1968 to 1980. A remake of the series began to air in 2010 on CBS and remains on the air.<\/p>\n
Padilla began his law enforcement career in 1992 as a officer with the Honolulu Police Department. He has served with the Kent Police Department since 1997 and became chief in 2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
