Cops are getting a bird's eye view of Conway. They're sitting on top of Chick-fil-A on Church Street.

It's Conway Police Departments "Cop on Top" fundraiser for the Special Olympics.

The money they raise will be used to send athletes to compete in the national Special Olympics games this summer in Nebraska.

"That's something that's near and dear to our hearts and we interact with the athletes every year and getting to go to all these competitions is so much fun and experiencing the joy and law enforcements got a special place in our heart," Sgt. Selena Mann told NewsChannel 15.

You can donate money, or just eat at the restaurant. Some of Chick-fil-A's proceeds will also benefit the Special Olympics.

The event runs through Saturday, including a free family festival on Saturday.
