Detroit police ramps up curfew enforcement

Detroit is intensifying its curfew enforcement to address rising violence involving minors, with Mayor Mike Duggan authorizing police chief Todd Bettison to extend mobile field teams' hours until 5 a.m. The city is not changing curfew times but is focusing on stricter enforcement for minors, especially following recent shootings involving young people, including a tragic incident where a 2-year-old was struck by a stray bullet. Community members are encouraged to report illegal activities as "Priority 1" calls, and parents face increased fines for allowing their children to violate curfews, with the first offense fine rising from $75 to $250.
