SO IF YOU SAW ANYTHING AROUND
4:00 A.M., CONTACT CHP.
AMY: THANK YOU FOR THAT.
RECORD-BREAKING HE IS TEMPTING
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE TO HEAD TO
LOCAL BEACHES AND WITH LABOR DAY
WEEKEND, OFFICIALS FEAR MANY
WILL GATHER WITH FRIENDS AND
FAMILY.
STACY BUTLER REPORTS
LEADERS WANT EVERYONE TO BE
SMART AND SAFE THIS HOLIDAY
WEEKEND.
MASKS, ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS
WALKED THE GREENBELT ACROSS FROM
THE BEACH MORNING VISITORS TO
MASK UP.
I AM AN ADVOCATE FOR WEARING
MASKS IN BIG GROUPS, I'M ALL FOR
MAYBE EVEN SHUTTING THE BEACHES
OR MAYBE GIVING TICKETS,
WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE.
ONE LIFE IS TOO MANY LIVES FOR
ME WHEN IT COMES TO THIS WHOLE
COVID THING REPORT AS THE HOT
HOLIDAY WEEKEND BEGINS,
OFFICIALS ARE PLEADING WITH US
TO KEEP DISTANCES AND AVOID
LARGE FAMILY GATHERINGS AND
PACKING BEACHES WITHOUT MASS
LIKE WE DID JULY 4 AND MEMORIAL
DAY.
CASES SPIKED AFTER THOSE
WEEKENDS.
WE DON'T WANT A REPEAT OF
SURGES WE'VE SEEN FOLLOWING
HOLIDAY WEEKENDS.
YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE A SURGE
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BUT
PARTICULARLY AS WE GO ON THE
OTHER SIDE OF LABOR DAY ENTERED
INTO THE FALL, WE WANT TO GO IN
WITH A RUNNING START IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION.
WE DON'T WANT TO GO INTO IT WITH
ANOTHER SURGE WE HAVE TO TURN
AROUND AGAIN.
PLEASE DON'T HAVE PARTIES
WHERE PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE MASS O
ON.
JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE A NEIGHBOR
DOESN'T MEAN THEY COULDN'T BE
POSITIVE REPORT ALL BEACHES WILL
BE OPEN FOR THE LONG HOT WEEKEND
BUT IT COULD CHANGE IF PEOPLE
BREAK THE RULES.
OFFICERS WILL BE IN FORCE
WATCHING LARGE GATHERINGS
CAREFULLY.
THIS IS WHY WE LIVE HERE IS
TO COME TO THE BEACH BE OUTSIDE
AND BE IN PUBLIC BUT SO FAR,
WITH PROVEN EVERY TIME IT GETS
HOT, EVERYBODY GOES OUT, WE JUST
GET PACKED AND PEOPLE CONTINUE
TO GET SICK SO WHAT ARE YOU
GOING TO DO?
HOW ELSE DO YOU ENFORCE IT?
REPORTER: LOCALS SAY THEY'VE
NEVER SEEN SO MANY VISITORS AND
MASKS ON THE SAND AND AT THE
PIER PLAZA THEY SAY THIS WEEKEND
OFFICERS WILL HAVE THEIR WORK
CUT OUT FOR THEM.
THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE OUT
RIGHT NOW, IT'S KIND OF A HARD
INTO POLICE ESPECIALLY WHEN
PEOPLE ARE OBVIOUSLY PLAYING
SPORTS.
AMY: ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS WILL
