Police Chief Recommends City-wide Curfew for New Braunfels Kids
Could a citywide curfew be coming to New Braunfels for kids under the age of 17? That issue came up in a special presentation made by New Braunfels Police Chief Ron Everett to City Council last night. The Chief laid out the pros and cons of a city-wide curfew, explaining to Council that a curfew would be a good tool for police to protect the youth and the community, by giving officers a way to get underage kids off the streets, and out of trouble.
