Miami Beach declares a state of emergency and imposes a midnight curfew as Spring Breakers wreak havoc on the city...
Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber and City Manager Alina Hudak announced the emergency order for the famed South Beach on Monday. The curfew will be in effect from midnight to 6 a.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. 'We don't ask for it, promote it, or encourage it. We just endure it,' Gelber said of the Spring Break crowds during a hastily-called press conference in front of City Hall to announce the curfew, which will cut short the usual 5am last call. The curfew will target the problematic South Beach hotspots, extending from 23rd Street to South Pointe Drive from the bay to restaurant-lined Ocean Drive.
The curfew comes in response to a string of violent incidents at spring break that saw five people wounded in two separate shootings.
The city commission will hold an emergency meeting Tuesday, and Hudak said she plans to recommend the curfew be extend through next weekend.
The mayor said about 100 guns have been seized over the past four weeks, and several police officers have been injured while controlling the crowds.

Miami is upset about the invasion? Maybe they ought to look into "Black College Week" issues from a few years ago. In MANY places.
