Description
This past weekend, the city of St. Petersburg kicked off its safe summer program for kids, with the goal of keeping them busy and out of trouble. This comes after more than 200 kids and teens gathered in downtown St. Pete near the Pier, some armed with gel pellet guns.
Several teens fired into crowds, hitting two police officers, a couple and a patrol horse. Two teens were arrested as a result.
On top of this new initiative, at 10 a.m. Monday, the city and St. Petersburg Police will share a new "youth care" program to help cut down on the cycle of teens in and out of jail.
