Description

Young men are now hanging out at IEY Middle School on a regular basis to smoke pot and drink beer. They typically drive their cars to the end of the teachers parking lot, near the back of Tocci field, in the early evenings to late night. They go onto the former tennis court area to get high while they play soccer. After getting stoned or drunk they go back into their cars. The entrance to the tennis court area is strewn with empty beer bottles, twisted tea cans, and cigar wrappers that are used to make marijuana blunts (see photos attached to this report). The New Rochelle Board of Education needs to keep this area clean and the New Rochelle Police Department should consider regular nightly patrols of this area. Locking the tennis court area with chains at night may become necessary.
