Residents in Crowley, Louisiana heard a very alarming sound when police drove through neighborhoods blasting a sound that many would consider to be frightening. It was the sound of the siren that is heard in the movie “The Purge” right before they legalize all crime for 12 hours.

The government knows exactly what they’re trying to do. Sure, they may apologize after doing something like this, but it’s not sincere. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but maybe this type of behavior is a subtle way of getting people used to something before actually implementing it.

KATC News in Louisiana reported,

The implementation of the siren, which Crowley Police told residents would be different than regular police sirens, is to enforce the 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. curfew. When residents hear this sound, Crowley Police say it is for their citizens to be notified that they are not allowed to leave their homes until the following morning.

“If you are out between the 9:00 pm to 6:00 am you will be stopped and advised to go home, ” a Facebook post states. After several days of this, the police department says they will begin giving out citations to violators. If you are headed to work or leaving work, you must have documentation from your employer.

The Sheriff of Acadia Parish,  K.P. Gibson, issued a statement on behalf of the police department:

“Last night a ”Purge Siren” was utilized by the Crowley Police Department as part of their starting curfew. We have received numerous complaints with the belief that our agency was involved in this process. We were not involved in the use of the “Purge Siren” and will not utilize any type of siren for this purpose. Calls regarding this matter should be directed to the Crowley Police / Chief Broussard and not the Acadia Parish Sheriff’s Office.”
