GEORGETOWN — Georgetown Police apprehended a Haverhill juvenile on Thursday evening after an incident involving alcohol consumption at American Legion Park.
On June 20, at approximately 5:31 p.m., officers responded to a report of a group drinking on the beach, an activity prohibited by local bylaws.
Upon arrival, police found two males and four females near a tree with alcohol present.
When commanded to disperse, all complied except for the male juvenile, who fled on foot, yelling profanities and disturbing nearby individuals.
The juvenile was later spotted near basketball courts on Flint Road and was stopped on Chaplin Road.
During the encounter, he struck an officer with a closed fist.
He was subsequently arrested and taken to the Georgetown Police Station.
His bail was set at $500, and he is due for arraignment in Lawrence Juvenile Court on June 21.
