The city of Miami Beach is implementing a curfew beginning at 11:59 p.m. through 6 a.m. Monday morning after two shootings in the area.
Around the, Miami Beach implemented its second emergency state after five bystanders were hospitalized in two random shootings. Mayor Dan Gelber held a press conference calling the rowdy tourist behavior"unacceptable."
Gelber noted in 2021 that he did not believe the surge of visitors were typical spring break demographics, as the tourists causing issues are not the college coeds normally associated with the vacation week. Sunday’s state of emergency order did not explicitly reference spring break as the cause of “unruly crowds,” but it is roughly the exact same date as the prior two years’ orders.
