Complaints pour in after inadvertent use of โPurgeโ siren to signal curfew
In that light, itโs not surprising pandemic-themed movies like Containment and Outbreak are among the most popular films in America right now. It started when the Crowley Police Department told residents, a new siren would be used to signal the parish-wide curfew which was put in place as a result of coronavirus. Inadvertently, the police department chose a siren also used in the horror movie, The Purge, which signals all crimes, including murder, are legal for the next 12 hours. The Acadia Parish Sheriffโs Office and the Crowley Police Department are now fielding numerous complaints about the alarm. The Sheriffโs Office took to Facebook to proclaim their innocence in the action.
