(A) Before proceeding with any enforcement action under this subchapter, a law enforcement officer, upon finding any minor in or upon a public place, during a time period not authorized herein, may stop and question such minor and request such information as his or her name, age, and the name and address of his or her parent.
(B) If the law enforcement officer determines or has reasonable cause to believe that the minor does not meet any of the permitted conditions provided in § 130.54, the law enforcement officer shall issue a citation or when necessary, cause a warrant summons to issue against said minor’s parents for violation of § 130.53(B) and may take into custody as evidence of the offense the minor and/or take the minor to his or her home or direct the minor to proceed immediately to his or her home. The law enforcement officer shall, at the time of the issuance of the citation or warrant summons, notify the offending parent(s) of his, her, or their right to file a beyond control petition in defense of any prosecution hereunder, as set forth in § 130.56(B).
