DC Youth Curfew Begins

WASHINGTON – D.C. police are aiming to remind young people that authorities will pick them up if they stay out past their curfew.

Police have launched a campaign to raise awareness about the city’s curfew laws for youth. Officials say police cadets made a new video using the slogan: “Are U in?”

The phrase is being used on a series of four posters at police headquarters and at each of the seven police district stations.

Under D.C. law, the curfew for those under age 17 starts at 11 p.m., Sunday through Thursday, and at 12:01 a.m. on weekends, through June 30. Then from July 1 to Aug. 31, the curfew starts at 12:01 a.m. and continues until 6 a.m., each day.
