ISP: Terre Haute Special Olympics fundraiser a success

Officers from the Indiana State Police, Vigo County Sheriff’s Office and Terre Haute Police Department accepted “tips” on behalf of Special Olympics of Indiana last week.

ISP Sgt. Joe Watts reports that the annual “Tip a Cop” fundraiser held at Texas Roadhouse Tuesday, was an overall  success. In fact, the event netted more donations than it did last year. The Terre Haute event raised $2,658, an increase of $457 from 2015.

Watts said he is pleased with community support for the fundraiser.
​
"Law enforcement, Texas Roadhouse Restaurant and Special Olympics of Indiana extend their gratitude to those who donated their time and money for this very worthy cause," Watts said.
