**Notice to Yeadon Residents**
Dear Yeadon Community,
We regret to inform you of an incident that occurred on Friday, October 4, during the football game at Kerr Field, where a fight broke out. Police responded swiftly to disperse the crowd and restore order, leading to the game being called off. Thankfully, no injuries were reported.
Chief Giammarco will collaborate with the school district’s athletic director, the public safety director, and borough representatives to assess the situation and implement necessary modifications to ensure the safety and security of our residents at future events.
While this was an unfortunate incident, we remain hopeful about enjoying community events together. Please know that your safety is our top priority, and we are taking this matter very seriously.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Sincerely,
LaToya Monroe
President
Yeadon Borough Council
