Willowbrook Mall ‘youth curfew’

Big picture view:

Houston's Willowbrook Mall also increased its security measures for the next two weekends after representatives said they were made aware of "recent social media activity indicating the potential for disruptive, unsupervised gatherings of youth."

Starting at 2 p.m. on May 2 and May 9, anyone in the mall under 18 years old has to be with an adult who is at least 21. There has to be one adult for every four minors.

If a person doesn't have a valid ID to prove that they're at least 18, they will not be allowed to stay at the mall without an adult. Officers will be at every entrance to check IDs for people "who appear to be 17 years old or younger."
