I went to clearview about 6 pm with my five year old grandson about 12 yeqrs ago and suddenly realized there were nothing but scary men with gold jewelry hamging around like gamgs. Then my grandson barreled off at top speed right into a gang of about ten of them, looked up and asked what was wrong with one’s teeth..they were gold. I was terrified but retrieved him and a guard took me to my car, never afain. When we moved to Baltimore back in the early seventies I went to. place called Mondawmin Mall not knowing what it was, escorted out by friendly cop who told me never to come back!
Before the curfew, we went to a movie at the theater there one Saturday night. When we went in at 7:00 or so, all was fine. When we came out around 9:30, we could barely get through packs of teens to get out of the mall. It was SCARY. I heard that the final straw was a food court worker being attacked and that’s when they decided to have the curfew. There are really no good stores in Clearview, but it’s a safer place to see a night movie now. As for the other malls in town, I’ll go to a couple of the anchor stores at night but I never walk through the mall.
