"Enhanced Security Measures Implemented in Miami Beach for Spring Break"

Miami Beach is implementing parking restrictions and closures ahead of the expected busy spring break weekend, with all parking garages and open-air lots in South Beach closed until Monday. Florida Governor DeSantis announced the deployment of 140 state troopers to keep things calm, with 45 troopers assigned to Miami Beach and 15 to Fort Lauderdale Beach. The city is cracking down on crowds to prevent a repeat of last year's chaos, with new rules and restrictions in place, including limited beach access, DUI checkpoints, and limited sidewalk seating. The measures aim to prioritize public safety and ensure an enjoyable, safe time for visitors.
