A dozen teenagers were arrested and charged in a brutal attack last month on a man at a gas station on East 140th and St. Clair Avenue. Polensek asked about that in letters to the city prosecutor and police chief about the nighttime minor curfew law.According to Cleveland Municipal Court, in the first seven months of 2023, the court had 32 night curfew citations. In 2022, there were 56.
"I understand the frustration, and I understand holding the parents accountable for our program and the admittance fee or what you have to pay to be in our program. I think that amount is appropriate because the person is trying,” Earley said.Polensek thinks increasing the penalty to $250 for the first offense and $500 for the second would be part of the solution.
