BUFFALO — Mayor Byron W. Brown and the Buffalo Police Department want to wish everyone a safe and fun Halloween night. As Halloween 2023 approaches two weeks from today, Mayor Brown issued a few safety reminders.
HALLOWEEN IS FOR CHILDREN IN COSTUMES
- To minimize the safety risks that occur when older youth go door-to-door until late at night, the City of Buffalo’s recommended Halloween Trick-or-Treating cut-off policy is 8:00 pm.
DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR LIGHTS AND PRETEND YOU’RE NOT HOME
- This is an open invitation for mischief. Keep your house well-lit.
A STRONG ADULT PRESENCE WILL SERVE AS A DETERRENT TO POTENTIAL MISCHIEF
- Work with your block club or neighbors to form “Neighborhood Watch Teams”. Call 911 if you see any suspicious activity.
All WNY is made possible thanks to coffee and sleep deprivation.
