Remember the movie "The Purge"?
With every passing day the COVID19 crisis feels more and more like a horror movie.
Police in Crowley, Louisiana decided to enforce their curfew by using the same siren sound used in the movie, "The Purge."
The chief of police said he thought it would be less jarring than a normal siren.
In an effort to alert residents to the parish-wide curfew in Acadia Parish, Crowley Police rode around town broadcasting an alarm signal at 9:00 last night, but it's not what anyone expected.
In a video provided to KATC, the audible alarm from Crowley Police is actually the alarm sound from the successful film franchise "The Purge"
That post on Facebook from the Crowley Police Department received over 500 comments asking why the alarm was necessary and to what reason a the curfew was being so strictly enforced.
