Miami Beach Declares State Of Emergency Amid Spring Break Chaos

Описание: The city of Miami Beach is imposing nighttime curfews and street closures in some of its most heavily trafficked areas Saturday evening under a declaration of a state of emergency to disperse dangerous crowds of rowdy spring break revelers."It feels like a rock concert. Wall-to-wall people over blocks and blocks," Gelber told CNN. "It feels like any match could set it off, and we don't want to wait to take these kinds of actions in the wake of a tremendous tragedy."Spring break crowds are commonplace for Miami Beach, but city officials say this season has been unusually chaotic. Gelber thinks his city has attracted abnormally large crowds this year because Covid-19 restrictions shut down many other vacation destinations. The Clevelander Hotel, a popular South Beach destination, shut down its restaurant until the end of spring break season Friday, citing fears about employees’ safety. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis eliminated all coronavirus-related fines in the state last week, but Miami Beach vowed to continue fining anybody caught violating mask mandates.
