Neighborhoods across the area will be partying tonight as part of an annual National Night Out celebration.
Each year, police departments nationwide organize events designed to encourage communities to come together, as well as educate residents about crime and drug prevention.
Residents are encouraged to lock their doors, turn on exterior lights and spend time with neighbors.
From 6 to 9 p.m. today, neighborhoods in Killeen, Copperas Cove and Harker Heights will be hosting block parties with activities for children and adults.
