'I'm urging parents, guardians, and responsible adults in the lives of children to make sure that you know what the rules are, and that you make a plan with your children and young people,' Lightfoot said.
with messages from myself and school principals across the city talking directly to kids and families about staying safe.
The mayor said the city will be partnering with the Chicago Public Schools and other schools across the city to explain the new curfew policy to students. She also said the Chicago Police Department"will exhaust all other efforts before they take law enforcement actions to make sure that our young people are safe."
The mayor said signs will be posted at Millennium Park informing visitors of the new rules, and the city will be teaming up with various groups, including the Chicago Public Schools, community organizations, and faith-based groups, to educate people about the new rules. The mayor said she does not believe restricting unaccompanied children from visiting Millennium Park at night on the weekends will simply push the problem to other parts of the city, because the city is also publicizing hundreds of organized activities available for minors at schools, parks, libraries, community groups, and other locations across the city.
"Curfews and bans create group culpability for all young people – whether they are there to enjoy the sights and sounds of downtown or something else. The vague description – relying on an undefined 'responsible adult' – allowing young people to be present in the park and the promise of strict enforcement will result in unnecessary stops and arrests and further strain relations between CPD and young people of color.
We took a closer look - focusing specifically on The Loop - where everything went down over the weekend. We followed up with the Mayor's office and Chicago Police on the safety claims, since violent crime numbers are at the highest we've seen in the Loop since 2018. Aggravated assault and aggravated battery at all-time highs.CBS 2's Molina asked a number of other questions and also requested a number of clarifications.
