EAST BURKE — The Vermont State Police are reporting that early Sunday morning a party was broken up in which multiple underage drinking tickets were issued.
According to the report, On May 25, at approximately 12:45 a.m. members of the Vermont State Police, Brighton Police Department, and Lyndonville Police Department, responded to an area of East Daring Hill Road just past the intersection with Burke Hollow Road in East Burke.
Someone called police to report that the underage drinking party was going on. The party started Saturday night, and continued into Sunday morning.
When police arrived, many of the offenders fled into the surrounding woods. Most of the underage offenders were located, and multiple underage drinking diversion tickets were issued.
The offenders were subsequently released into the custody of their parents.
A similar underage drinking party was broken up last month in Irasburg, where police and U.S. Border Patrol teamed up to locate a party goer through the use of night vision goggles, after he fled the scene.
