For the third time this summer, Police Chief Pamela Smith is creating temporary curfew zones in parts of D.C. Smith announced a weekend curfew for part of Northeast, D.C. Friday afternoon after earlier putting restrictions on teens and kids’ presence at The Wharf in Southwest.

Both curfews will start Friday night. Under the curfews, no one 17 and under will be allowed to gather in groups of nine or more within the boundaries of the zone. The curfews begin at 8 p.m. and run through 11 p.m. each night, starting Friday and going through Monday.

There are some exceptions for teens and kids who are heading home for work or attending an activity related to school or religion. These weekend curfews are in addition to a citywide curfew for the same age group that is in effect every night from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. through Aug. 31. This is the third time this summer Smith has taken advantage of emergency legislation passed by the city council, that allows her to set up curfew zones. Previously, the temporary zones were located in the area of the Navy Yard and in the U Street corridor. Chief Smith called for the citywide curfew after nearly two dozen young people were arrested for being disorderly and launching fireworks over the Fourth of July weekend.
