Reminder To Mind Your Belongings:
Unfortunately, many have reported pickpockets, bag slashings, and theft of wallets, smartphones, purses, and other valuables during this festival season. While a small number of bad apples in the bunch doesn’t define an entire crowd, some opportunistic people come to these events to take advantage of unsuspecting partygoers. It’s important to be mindful of your valuables while at Toxic Summer.
