(Greendale, Ind.) – Greendale Chief of Police Shane Slack has issued a statement regarding NERF WARS that are currently happening with high school students in the City of Greendale and throughout Dearborn County.

“I would like to remind ALL participants to be considerate of our residents and their property. Our department has been receiving multiple calls per day about teenagers speeding in their vehicles, disrupting traffic, trespassing on homeowners’ properties, and being a disturbance to the community.

While we encourage the youth to have some fun, we would prefer that they do it in a manner that isn’t going to result in a life changing event for them or their family. Parents, please talk to your kids about being safe and respectful while out participating with NERF WARS. In addition, the Greendale Police Department will do our part to protect and serve all citizens and enforce criminal and traffic laws. Our officers will be watching and responding appropriately to every situation"
