On Sunday, Democratic Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced a 6 p.m. curfew for teenagers in the city, following the incident.

Tourists gather near Chicago’s famous “Cloud Gate” sculpture, also known as “The Bean,” following a deadly shooting.

“Effective immediately, from Thursday through Sunday, unaccompanied minors are not allowed in Millennium Park after 6:00 p.m.,” Lightfoot said in a statement. “This new policy will be strictly enforced and violations will be dealt with swiftly.”

Juveniles will be allowed to leave their homes despite the curfew, should they be accompanied by an adult chaperone.
