Naperville Police made three arrests and issued 20 citations after “about 100 teens” gathered near The Naperville Riverwalk, a popular park in the affluent Chicago-area suburb, NCTV17 reported.
A few days before that planned unauthorized gathering, NPD put out a post on social media saying in part, “We welcome those who wish to gather lawfully and respectfully enjoy our community. However, anyone who chooses to engage in criminal activity, disorderly conduct, or acts that threaten public safety will be met with zero tolerance and held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.”
