The measure is aimed at curbing disorderly conduct by teenagers<\/strong><\/p>\n

A limited five-night curfew has been imposed for all people under 18 in Washington, DC, following a large fight between groups of teenagers on Halloween.<\/strong><\/p>\n

All minors must remain indoors from 11pm to 6am Saturday to Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Mayor Muriel Bowser said the restrictions were introduced “in response to several weeks of disorderly juvenile behavior which endangered both themselves and others.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela Smith established “special juvenile curfew zones”<\/em> around Navy Yard, the U Street Corridor, Banneker Recreation Center, and Union Station.<\/p>\n

The measure comes after a video showing National Guard troops breaking up a brawl in the Navy Yard neighborhood went viral.<\/p>\n

According to police, several hundred young people gathered on Halloween in a park near the Navy Yard Metro Station, and at one point “many of the juveniles within the group began engaging in fights and disrupting the flow of traffic.”<\/em> Five males aged 14 to 18 were arrested, one of whom was carrying a knife.<\/p>\n

“The behavior displayed last night in Navy Yard is unacceptable, and MPD and our law enforcement partners will have an increased presence tonight to ensure this does not happen again,”<\/em> Smith said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
