Over the weekend, police responded to 999 incidents, an increase of 130 over last year’s Memorial Day weekend, which included underage drinking, vandalism, assaults, shoplifting and the confiscation of a gun, according to a statement from the city. Under the new rules, all beaches will be closed at 8 p.m. Carrying backpacks will not be permitted on the beach or boardwalk after 8 p.m. as well, officials said. The new beach curfew will apply to people of all ages, as will the evening backpack ban. Boardwalk bathrooms will also be closed at 10 p.m.
Ocean City Mayor Jay Gillian said the new steps are necessary following the unruly behavior of many over the holiday weekend.
