In what's appearing to be an annual spring break ritual, Miami Beach, Florida, officials are imposing a curfew after two fatal shootings and rowdy crowds this weekend.
The two separate shootings Friday night and early Sunday on the popular Ocean Drive that left two people dead and “excessively large and unruly crowds” led to the decision, the release said. City officials didn't provide further information when contacted by USA TODAY Sunday.
This is the third consecutive year that this South Florida vacation destination with more than 81,000 residents and traditionally favored among spring breakers has declared a curfew and state of emergency.
Last year, the city imposed a midnight curfew following two shootings that left five people injured. In 2021, there were more than 1,000 arrests and dozens of guns confiscated during a rowdy spring break leading Miami Beach officials to order an emergency curfew.
