Before you hit the community neighborhoods for trick-or-treating, the Lincoln Police Department is inviting the ghosts and goblins to stop by he police department facility on Fifth Street for some candy.

On the WHOW Morning Show Thursday, Lincoln Police Chief Joe Meister told the Hart Media Group they'll be passing out candy in the parking lot of their building just off Fifth Street on the southwest side of town.

Chief Meister indicates the Department can be pretty busy on Halloween night with kids getting into some innocent pranks and trouble.

Trick-or-treating in Lincoln is from 5 pm to 8 pm.
