WALL TOWNSHIP, NJ – Thinking of getting involved in some late-night mischief in the days leading up to Halloween? The Wall Township Police Department is advising against it.

Today, the department reminded residents about the municipal teen curfew around the Halloween holiday.

According to the township code, it is unlawful for a juvenile to be on any public street or in any public place between the hours of 9:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. on October 29, 30, 31 and November 1 of this year.

Police said there are some exceptions to the rule.

Juveniles must be accompanied by a parent or guardian or engaged in or traveling to or from a business occupation, engaged in an errand involving a medical emergency, or attendance at an extracurricular school activity; an activity sponsored by a religious or community-based organization.

“It shall be unlawful for any parent or guardian to allow an unaccompanied juvenile to be on any public street or in any public place during those hours,” police warned.

The Curfew will take effect starting at 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 29th.
