??? *HALEDON POLICE DEPARTMENT ISSUES WARNING REGARDING THE USE OF ORBEEZ GEL BLASTERS* ???
The Haledon Police Department is issuing a warning regarding the use of Orbeez Gel Blasters and participation in the Orbeez Challenge. Recently, there have been instances of juveniles misusing these toy gel guns to partake in activities that are causing concern within our community.
Misusing Orbeez Gel Blasters to scare, threaten, or harass individuals is not only irresponsible but also dangerous. These actions can create unnecessary panic, confusion, and potentially dangerous situations, especially when these toys are mistaken for real weapons.
We want to remind everyone, especially parents and guardians, of the importance of educating children about responsible toy gun use. It is crucial to have open conversations with your children about the potential consequences of using these toys inappropriately. Emphasize the importance of using toys in a safe and respectful manner that does not jeopardize the well-being of others or themselves.
The Haledon Police Department takes reports of misuse of toy guns seriously. Anyone found using Orbeez Gel Blasters in a manner that causes public alarm or distress will face appropriate consequences in accordance with the law.
Let us work together to ensure the safety and well-being of our community. If you witness any suspicious or concerning behavior related to the Orbeez Challenge or similar activities, please report it to the authorities immediately.
Thank you for your attention and cooperation in keeping our community safe.
