The jurisdiction of all police officers shall extend to all parts of the City of Weirton, and to such other parts of Brooke and Hancock Counties, West Virginia as do not exceed five miles in distance from said City.
The Council shall provide for the enforcement of all ordinances by reasonable and proper penalties, consisting of fines or imprisonment or fines and imprisonment, with suitable rules and regulations for the enforcement of such penalties; provided, however, that in no event, except as hereinafter provided, shall imprisonment for a longer period than sixty days or a greater fine than five hundred dollars or both, be imposed for any one offense. Nothing herein shall limit or prevent the Council from providing penalties for violations of traffic laws equal to the penalties provided by the general laws of the State for like offenses constituting misdemeanors.
