TWO PEOPLE FINED AFTER POLICE SHUT DOWN A PARTY ON THE MID NORTH COAST
Two people have been fined and a teenager given a warning following a party on the Mid North Coast.
Officers attended a field on Boyters Lane, Jerseyville, about 10.30pm on Saturday, following reports of a large party.
On arrival, police observed at least 80 people inside a shed who were displaying little regard for current health advice.
After officers attempted to disperse the crowd, many attendees became aggressive towards them and threw glass bottles.
The officers retreated outside to await back-up, but the group began to disperse leaving a small number who were packing up electrical equipment.
Following further inquiries, a 22-year-old Port Macquarie man and a 24-year-old West Kempsey woman were advised they would receive a $1000 PIN, while a 14-year-old boy was given a warning under the Young Offenders Act.
