BALTIMORE, (WBFF) — Memorial Day weekend marked the start of Baltimore’s youth curfew. Mayor Brandon Scott touted it as a success. “Baltimore's first weekend under the curfew ordinance was by all accounts a complete success. There were no major incidents and no need to transport anyone to the Youth Connection Centers. This was only possible thanks to the coordination and partnership between the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement (MONSE), the Mayor's Office of Children and Family Success (MOCFS), and numerous offices and agencies across city government. Our innovative approach ensured that the beginning of our strategy worked and helped keep young people and our communities safe this holiday weekend. We will continue to evaluate our approach and adapt, if necessary, as the summer progresses.”
