Kissimmee Bans Children From Playing In Streets

Children in Kissimmee, Fla., are no longer allowed to play in the streets or on sidewalks, according to a Local 6 News report.

Tuesday night, Kissimmee City commissioners agreed to a new ordinance that makes it illegal for children to play with portable recreational equipment, like basketball hoops and hockey nets in the streets or sidewalks.

Violators will face a $100 fine.

Commissioners said the ordinance will keep kids safe and cut down of liability for the city.
