A battle is brewing in Gig Harbor, and police want to call a truce. FOX13
The Gig Harbor High School Class of 2023 is in the midst of a ‘Nerf War,’ one that plays out for weeks all throughout town—with a cash prize for the winner."Each year, we get reports of prowlers or suspicious people, we usually work it out and tie it to this event," said Gig Harbor Police Chief Kelly Busey. "We understand this is a fun event and most of the activity associated with it is very safe, and again, in the spirit of fun." He said.
The seniors stalk each other with Nerf guns with foam bullets, striking the other team when they least suspect it, in order to eliminate a player from that team. Almost any place, and any time of day, is in play. So, Mayor Markley wants to find some other way for the seniors to have their fun, and it not play out over so a wide area throughout town.
