Chaotic Brawl at Chipotle Sparks Call for Youth Curfew in D.C.

Videos from Saturday night showcase a melee at a Chipotle in the Navy Yard neighborhood. Youths were seen throwing punches and chairs, while patrons looked on in fear.

On May 18, 2026, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, addressed the incident. She renewed her threat of prosecuting parents whose children engage in criminal activities. Pirro also urged the D.C. Council to pass an emergency youth curfew measure.

The brawl underscores the broader concerns over youth crime in the area and ignites discussions on the balance between parental responsibility and community safety.
