A huge thank you to .tomato for generously feeding the West New York Police Department during our Fourth of July detail on Blvd East.

Your support meant a lot to our officers as they worked through the night to ensure a safe and enjoyable celebration for everyone watching the fireworks. It was a successful event for the WNYPD, and we’re proud to have community partners like you standing with us.

To our community — please continue to celebrate responsibly and never light fireworks near trees or dry areas. Your safety, and the safety of our neighborhoods, comes first.

We truly appreciate your kindness and delicious food — it kept our team going! 🇺🇸🍕
