MIAMI (AP) — Miami Beach officials are imposing an emergency 8 p.m.-6 a.m. curfew effective immediately, saying large, out-of-control spring break crowds crammed the beaches, trashed some restaurant properties, and brawled in the streets.
Tourists and hotel guests are being told to stay indoors during the curfew hours.
It's unclear how long the curfew will remain in effect, but Interim City Manager Raul Aguila told the Miami Herald that he recommends keeping it in place through April 12, or the end of spring break.
A countywide midnight curfew is already in place due to COVID-19.
According to the Associated Press, pedestrians or vehicles will not be allowed to enter the restricted area after 8 p.m.
The AP reported that the Clevelander South Beach is temporarily suspendeding all food and beverage operations until at least March 24.
