Neighbors, On Saturday around 9pm we were all enjoying the first true snowfall of the winter. The streets were coated with some perfect snow for people to play. There was a group of kids & teens who were taking advantage of this snow near the corner of Jackson & N St. Clair. They were playing. Sliding in the snow, snowball challenges, HAVING FUN. This was all cut short when someone found cause to walk up N St Clair in the middle of the road, bellowing at the kids to “GO HOME” and that it was “AFTER CURFEW” and if they didn’t comply he would “CALL THE COPS”. The interaction didn’t last long, and the person doing the bellowing ended the kids’ play. Let me take a second to clear something up. Snow is fun, and kids are going to play in it. Furthmore, the neighborhood kids ARE ALLOWED to play in the snow. There is absolutely no curfew in the city of Pittsburgh, and there is also no rule about quiet hours after a certain point in time. This act is completely unacceptable, and it is a crappy thing to threaten to call the cops on kids who are playing legally. Don’t be the person who does this. Thanks, Kara
