\u201cAs Mayor I am grateful for the actions of the Raleigh Police officers in response to the situations of juvenile violence across the City on the night of July 4 and morning of July 5,\u201d Cowell said in a written statement to The News & Observer. \u201cClearly Raleigh is not exempt from the incidents of youth violence that are occurring across the country. We need to talk with the youth, their parents, schools and the broader community to understand the root causes and to better coordinate strategies.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of those approaches could be a youth curfew for those 17 years and under<\/b>, with \u201ccity leadership\u201d exploring many approaches that will be discussed during the Raleigh City Council meeting on Tuesday, July 7.<\/p>\n

Raleigh Police described chaos involving thousands of teenagers and many law enforcement agencies that worked for hours Saturday, July 4, and into Sunday, throughout parts of the city.<\/p>\n

At least 3,000 teens were part of a takeover in Brier Creek, in northwest Raleigh, where \u201ca large fight erupted\u201d and two bystanders were injured, The News & Observer reported. The takeover reassembled in Glenwood South with about 5,000 teenagers that resulted in multiple shootings and people injured.<\/p>\n

Raleigh previously ordered a curfew during the protests<\/a> around criminal justice including when George Floyd, a Black man, was killed by a white police officer in May 2020, and when a Kentucky grand jury cleared three Louisville police officers of criminal wrongdoing in the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor<\/a> in September 2020.<\/p>\n
