长滩市万圣节夜严行青少年宵禁：17岁以下晚8时至次晨6时不得在外
新泽西州蒙茅斯县长滩市（Long Branch）警方宣布，万圣节当晚将严格执行针对17岁以下青少年的宵禁，时间为10月31日晚8时至次日凌晨6时，以防范万圣节周末可能出现的大规模青少年聚集事件。
警方表示，这一措施源于今年5月的一次「青少年接管」事件：当时数百名青少年在长滩市聚集，引发多起打斗，最终导致6人被捕。此后警方加强了节假日期间的巡逻与管控。
美国全国多地也在万圣节周末采取类似措施，包括增设宵禁与加强巡逻，应对近年来频发的青少年大规模聚集滋事问题。

Long Branch to Strictly Enforce Halloween Curfew for Under-17s, 8 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Long Branch, Monmouth County, New Jersey — Police announced they will strictly enforce a Halloween curfew for those under 17 on October 31, running from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m., to head off the kind of large teen gatherings seen on recent holiday weekends.
The curfew was set in response to a teen takeover in May, when hundreds of people gathered in Long Branch, fights broke out and six people were arrested. Police have since stepped up patrols and controls on holiday weekends.
Cities across the country are taking similar steps this Halloween weekend, rolling out curfews and extra officers in places still reeling from takeovers that drew hundreds of teens and ended in fights and arrests.
