Police flood Orange Crush island hot spot, warn of teen takeovers as beach bash madness returns
2026-04-16
[FoxNews] Heightened security is coming to Tybee Island this weekend as the controversial Orange Crush festival returns, bringing with it concerns over a recent surge in unpermitted teen takeovers.

"In recent months, stories of so-called 'teen takeovers' have popped up across the country," Tybee Island police said in a Facebook post Tuesday. "This phenomenon hit home just over a week ago, when an unpermitted event on the beach was interrupted by the sound of gunfire. Now, as we approach the return of Crush Reloaded, members of our local and online communities have expressed concerns."

The move follows a surge in nationwide "teen takeover" events, a trend that hit home last week when gunfire disrupted an unpermitted beach gathering on the island.
