Flower Mound police announce juvenile curfew crackdown

Due to the holiday season and anticipated increase in the number of juvenile offenses typically seen when school is out of session, the Flower Mound Police Department has again initiated a Curfew Ordinance Enforcement Program.

As a component of the Curfew Program, the police department will dedicate police officers to focus on curfew offenses and related juvenile crimes.

Curfew hours for those ages 16 and younger are in effect between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and 12:01 a.m. to 6 a.m. Friday and Saturday. The curfew enforcement initiative will continue through the New Year’s holidays.

Violators may be transported to the police department, cited, and picked up by their parents. Juveniles apprehended while committing more serious violations may be transported to the Denton County Juvenile Detention Facility.

Flower Mound Police are seeking community support with this initiative. Residents who see juveniles out after curfew hours are encouraged to contact police at 972-539-0525. For emergencies, call 9-1-1.
