New Trick Or Treating Law Denies Teenagers

What should be the cut off age for trick or treating? That is a question we hear every year it seems. One town may have the final word on just how old you should be.

According to a post on their government's web page, trick or treaters in Chesapeake, Virginia must be under 12 years old.

If any person over the age of 12 years shall engage in the activity commonly known as "trick or treat" or any other activity of similar character or nature under any name whatsoever, he or she shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine of not less than $25.00 nor more than $100.00 or by confinement in jail for not more than six months or both.
