Now, for all skating sessions that start after 8 p.m., patrons 16 and younger must be accompanied by an adult or guardian 21 and older. However, those who have their own skates will not need a chaperone, the business posted Wednesday night on social media.
Because of the number of fights that were taking place, Huber Heights police issued a “signal 99” countywide call for officer assistance.
Eight agencies responded: the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, Dayton Police Department, Vandalia, Moraine, Trotwood, Brookville and Five Rivers Metro Parks Rangers responded with Huber Heights, and the extra manpower helped break up the fights.
