Remaining idle in essentially one location, and shall include the concept of spending time idly, loafing or walking about aimlessly, and shall also include the colloquial expression "hanging around."
Any place to which the public has access, and shall include any street, highway, road, alley or sidewalk. It shall also include the front or the neighborhood of any store, shop, restaurant, tavern or other place of business and public grounds, areas and parks, as well as parking lots or other vacant private property not owned by or under the control of the person charged with violating this chapter or, in the case of a minor, not owned by or under the control of his parent or guardian.
Obstruct, molest or interfere with any person lawfully in any public place as defined in § 179-1. This subsection shall include the making of unsolicited remarks of an offensive nature or which are calculated to annoy or disturb the person to whom or in whose hearing they are made.
Whenever any police officer shall, in the exercise of reasonable judgment, decide that the presence of any person in any public place is causing or is likely to cause any of the conditions enumerated in § 179-2, he may, if he deems it necessary for the preservation of the public peace and safety, order that person to leave that place. Any person who shall refuse to leave after being ordered to do so by a police officer shall be guilty of a violation of this section.
If, at any time within 30 days following the giving of notice as provided in § 179-5, the minor to whom such notice relates again violates this chapter, it shall be presumed, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, that the minor did so with the knowledge and permission of his parent or guardian.
