The Westfield Garden State Plaza Mall, the second largest shopping center in New Jersey, established that from now on anyone under the age of 17 must be accompanied by someone over the age of 21 to enter the mall, on Fridays and Saturdays after 5:00 p.m.
According to mall management, this is a consequence of several reports of disruptive behavior and fights inside the mall on weekends. The mall claims that security guards will be stationed at all mall entrances and will check IDs.
Therefore, minors under 18 years of age who are inside the shopping center but who do not have an adult over 21 to supervise them must leave the facilities after 5:00 pm. In addition, adolescents without identification will also have to leave the place.
In addition, adults will only be able to supervise four children and adolescents at a time. The new policy does not apply to the AMC Theater but to the mall and its common areas. According to a note published by Fox News 5, the Garden State Plaza does not say how long the term of this new regulation will be, only that it is subject to change, perhaps if everyone behaves in the best way.
