A Brooklyn Target has instituted a policy requiring all guests under 18 to be accompanied by an adult, in response to increasing delinquent behavior and loitering by teens in the store. Security guards now monitor the entrance and enforce this rule, aiming to minimize fights and disturbances. The action reflects broader measures by businesses to improve customer safety and comfort, particularly as school hours contribute to increased gatherings of unruly youths in the area. This policy aims to deter such behavior and create a safer shopping environment for all customers.
"All guests under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult at this Target store," a sign stationed inside the door reads.
"It's just regular. They play around. They come in groups, you know, and a lot of kids - and they're not really friends," the guard told The Post.
"We try to make sure everybody doesn't have a hangout spot after school," the guard said.
"They started cursing at each other. We sent them back down the stairs. One of them threw a punch. Stuff like that," he said.
