The Paris Police Department is hosting a Texas Night Out this evening from 5:00 until 8:00 pm at the Love Civic Center. Paris Police spokesman Curtis Garrett says the event is a way to increase neighborhood spirit, fire safety, improve police-community partnerships and help keep the city safe. There will be free Hotdogs, drinks, and chips as well as helicopters, emergency vehicles and McGruff the Crime Dog. Everything is free, and there will also be lots of opportunities for prizes.
