Curfew In Effect Over Halloween

Police are reminding Wall residents that a curfew is in effect for Oct. 29 – Nov. 1, over the Halloween holiday.

The curfew runs from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. each night, banning anyone under 18 from being “in any public street or in any public place,’’ unless accompanied by an adult, according to local ordinance.

It is also against the local law for an adult to allow a juvenile to roam the streets between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. on the dates listed, the ordinance says.

Violators of the curfew are subject to a fine up to $1,000 and/or 30 days of community service, Sgt. Pete Lokerson said.
