Unruly tweens terrorize Golden Horseshoe
On May 7, the owner of a market business in the Golden Horseshoe Shopping Center reported kids were lying on the hill behind the shared Starbucks and Chopt building. People are not allowed to gather on the hill due to safety concerns. The area falls within the jurisdiction of New Rochelle, and Scarsdale police notified that agency.
Following this report, on Sunday, May 9, employees of the Golden Horseshoe CVS and Chopt, posted their experiences of unruly kids on the Facebook social media site, “Scarsdale Social.” Their posts described how local middle-school aged kids wreak daily havoc at their places of business and disrupt the shopping and dining of residents who enjoy frequenting the Golden Horseshoe Shopping Plaza. A man who identified himself as a “front store worker” at CVS wrote, “ We have experienced an unacceptable level of noise, rudeness, vulgarity, and graffiti in and on our aisles … from middle school aged children.” He said his post represented a “very serious tone,” and he urged parents with children who frequent the CVS location off Wilmot Road to “to make sure [their children] act politely.”

On Tuesday, May 11, a manager at Chopt told a reporter from Scarsdale10583.com that the unruly kids are also plaguing her restaurant and patio. According to the manager, kids are rough housing, writing with chalk, throwing tables, chairs and garbage – and leaving a mess most days after school. She said, “ They come to the shopping center around 3 p.m. each day and wreak havoc outside.” She said she has even heard patio tables and chairs hitting the glass windows of the restaurant. It should also be noted that while hanging out on the patio, these kids are not typically ordering food or beverages from the restaurant.

Echoing the sentiment of the CVS worker, the Chopt manager asks parents of middle schoolers to supervise their children while at the shopping center or to prohibit them from visiting “if they can’t behave.”
The CVS worker reiterated his and other employees’ frustration in his Scarsdale Social post, “Our job description does not entail babysitting children who should know better about how to compose themselves in public.”

Commenting on these fraudulent unemployment claims Scarsdale Police said, “The thieves are acquiring names and social security numbers – and there was a publicized story that car insurance companies were compromised and thieves acquired personal identifying information from that source – but there could be other unknown sources.”

“We have advised the complainants to file a fraud report with the FTC (ftc.gov), monitor all credit activity with one of the three credit reporting bureaus, obtain a free credit report, and to be vigilant for phishing scams and unsolicited phone calls that also seek personal information.”

Police recommend that residents “acquire a free credit report, set up a credit alert (or freeze to have an added layer of protection) with one of the credit reporting agencies (Experian, Equifax or Transunion), and only browse the internet on secure networks.
