Good Evening, Hinsdale and Visitors!👋
We have a few things to share before everyone heads into the weekend!
🎯 1. Police Department Range Use
The Hinsdale Police Department will be utilizing the shooting range this Saturday from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. So, if you hear some activity coming from that area during those hours, no need to be alarmed!
🚨 2. A Little Reminder About Respecting Other People’s Property
We’ve had several incidents around town involving break-ins and significant vandalism. Unfortunately, some of these incidents have been determined to involve juveniles.
Parents and guardians, please take a moment to remind your kids about making good choices, respecting other people’s property, and being accountable for their actions. And, of course, know where your kids are and what they’re up to.
As for the adults who are still engaging in this type of behavior… well, if you know one and think a good heart-to-heart might finally do the trick, by all means, give it a shot.
Otherwise, feel free to let us know. We’d be happy to introduce them to a fellow by the name of Ernesto Miranda. 📖
We even have a juvenile edition for our younger audience.
All jokes aside, breaking into someone else’s property isn’t just illegal. It’s dangerous for everyone involved, including the property owner and the person committing the crime. What someone might consider a harmless adventure or prank can quickly turn into a very serious situation.
Let’s all do our part to respect our neighbors, their property, and the community we share.
🎃3. Don’t forget that there is a curfew in place for juveniles under 17, which is based on a town ordinance. Juveniles located in town on any public property or roadway, after 8pm on October 30 and October 31st without a parent or guardian will be in violation. All other weekdays out of the year is 10pm and 11pm on the weekends.
Historically, Cabbage night and Halloween 🎃 would get out of hand, thus the reason for the difference in times.
Trick or Treating is from 5pm - 8pm on October 31st.
Have a safe weekend, Hinsdale! 🚓
