Party Posted on Facebook Gets Cops Attention
If you are going to advertise a party on Facebook and invite underage drinkers, DO NOT dare the cops to show up.
Excerpt from www.wowt.com
Fifteen people were arrested Sunday morning after authorities invited themselves to what was advertised on the Internet as a “History Making House Party” in Sarpy County.
The posting on Facebook said the party was to start at 9 p.m. Saturday and run until 5 a.m. Sunday. The invitation advertised a disc jockey, professional photographer, shuttle service from the Shadow Lake Towne Center, six kegs of beer and bottles of liquor.
The host even posted this postscript: “P.S., don’t worry about the cops because I have a police scanner so I will have the heads up if they come.”
“Everybody is watching it, this did not come from us searching for a party,” said Sarpy County Sheriff’s Lt. Russ Zeeb.
“It came from someone in the public bringing it to our attention. In following up with it, we started observing a lot of minors on the Facebook that had replied back. I think there was 46 minors that had replied back that they were to going to be there.”
