NY State Police Close Mincha Area For The Night, After Massive Crowds Gather























What started as a regular summer Thursday night at the Sloatsburg Rest Area, has turned into chaos, with hundreds of people trying to get into the Mincha Area at once. This has caused serious traffic delays on the NYS Thruway, with the NYSP stating the traffic is backed up for one mile. The Thruway Authority and NYSP have closed the area for the night.

Community activists are on the scene, and working with officials, to ensure that the issues which plagued the area tonight, will not be repeated.

Apparrantly, due to the overflowing crowds, people parked their vehicles on the enterence ramp to the area, and not in the designated area, causing the massive traffic backup.
