Chandler's city streets may see a drop in disorderly behavior and knuckle-related incidents as new laws targeting unruly gatherings and brass knuckle possession by minors come into force. Detailed information regarding the ordinances can be found on the Chandler, Arizona website, which outlines the potential consequences for violations which now include fines, and in some instances, jail time.

The newly enacted Unruly Gathering Law empowers the police to disperse gatherings that get out of hand, issuing citations or charges as they see fit. Under this law, failure to comply with a dispersal order is a citable offense. Moreover, repeat violators, within 180 days may face harsher repercussions. Ominously, parents aren't off the hook – they could be held accountable for the disobedience of their children under 18 years of age. A class one misdemeanor awaits any adult or minor involved in underage drinking, drug use, felony-level acts, or physical confrontations that result in harm, as per Chandler, Arizona.

Those found guilty of a class one misdemeanor, which, according to the content of these new laws, encompasses activities from underage drinking to the possession of brass knuckles by minors, can incur fines up to $2,500. They may also find themselves facing up to six months in jail and or three years of probation, as detailed by Chandler, Arizona.
