Reminder for parents after 30 youths drink and cause damage at house party

Tue, 31 Jan 2012

Police are urging parents to make sure they know where their children are at all times following a house party in the south of the Island at the weekend.

Over 30 young people were at the house without the knowledge of the host's parents.

Officers say an unsavoury mix of underage drinking and damage followed.

Some of those at the party hadn't told their parents where they were.

When police turned up, the youngsters dispersed in different directions.
