Halloween is Friday night, and local authorities are sending out annual trick-or-treating reminders.

Clinton Police Chief Ben Lowers indicates the neighborhood adjacent to Clinton Elementary School is usually the busiest spot in Clinton for Halloween activities.

Trick-or-treating hours in Clinton are from 5 pm to 8 pm. Chief Lowers is reminding the young trick-or-treaters to have costumes that do not drag near their feet and may cause them to trip. 

While homemade candy is becoming less and less common in today's world, the Chief continues to remind to make sure the youngsters are only consuming factory-wrapped candy.

Chief Lowers encourages motorists out in busy areas of any community to be mindful of the young kids out for Halloween, and everyone to be safe this Halloween.
