About 150 people were arrested in Miami Beach over the weekend, while a mob of rebel rioters invaded the city.
Friday marked the wildest day in the party’s hotspot, with about 120 people arrested and two police officers were injured during clashes with partygoers, Local 10 News reported.
“It really is a difficult situation,” said Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber of the weekend’s debauchery.
“Many people are coming here and are coming with the wrong intentions,” he said, according to another report from the vehicle.
The city is under a midnight curfew amid a pandemic.
The injured policemen were trying to make an arrest when they were attacked, officials said.
“The crowd ended up turning against the policemen who were there,” said Miami Beach police spokesman Ernesto Rodriguez, according to the report.
Friday’s meetings prompted police in some areas to deploy pepper balls to disperse the crowd.
On Saturday, another 30 people were arrested.
Gelber, the mayor, has warned aspiring spring breakers that more arrests will be made if they continue to break the law.
“If you are coming here because you think anything goes, you will have a terrible time. We are going to arrest him, ”he said.
