2020-01-06@12:17pm–Sergeant Ashley Taylor of the Bridgeport Police Department has requested police officers to go to the American Steakhouse to discuss the permit the children have to sell candy for their fundraiser. She is aware of the previous complaints and a couple of officers have said so on the radio dispatch. Since it is happening on private property one would think it is a civil matter for them to work out, not bother the police every time they want to.
2020-01-04@2:53pm—#Bridgeport News: Security at American Steakhouse on Boston Avenue calls the cops AGAIN on the kids selling candy for their out reach. This is the third time in 2 months. Each time they produce a licence to sell. Maybe it’s time to start fining the security guy or steakhouse for a nuisance call.
The group selling is Play4Youths.com raises funds for children.
