Thread: Ever had the Police show at your party?

Tweet

We have had 14 Halloween Parties, cops have showed up 3 times, I don't like our percentage!

Wow...no, we have a rather mellow and smaller group. We are trying to grow it each year but I haven't really thought if that potential consequence. Was anybody charged with anything (if you don't mind me asking)? Do you have a big group?

I do worry about that. Ours is a kids party but there will be about 55 people here and I have a lot of new neighbors. I am not sure if they will tolerate the noise and lights from the DJ. The party is over by nine so surely it will be FINE. Some people are so uptight though....

Not as of yet.

We have had about 75 people for years. The first time the police were called a few years ago one of my husbands friends had brought his ATV over, I told him no, and put it away, at the end of the evening a friend of mine asked it she could ride it, I knew she was responsible, she would take a couple of laps around the yard and be done. After she did that he decided on his own if I let her ride he should be able to ride. He had a second person on the back and they rode off my property down the road and up a steep hill, that is where the quad flipped, landed on him, and broke him up Bad. Somehow he flipped it up on its wheels, rode back, got to the fire and said 'Call 911' at first everyone thought he was kidding, then he stopped breathing. I had 2 Nurse friends at the house and they helped out until the ambulance got here. Broken collar bone, crushed sternum, broken ribs, broken arm.

Funny thing, my husband called 911, said I need an ambulance at 'our address' 911 dispatcher "Ken?' My Husband "Ronnie?" It was my Sisters best friend.

He was arrested at the Hospital about a week later after he was out of ICU -don't remember exactly what for - resisting arrest? and/or other things.



3 Years ago We had some guests that brought Fireworks, I mean Real Fireworks - Six cop cars in the driveway that night - no arrests.


Last night a friend of our got out of control - He normally doesn't drink but he was last night, but when he freaked out it wasn't like a Drunk Freak Out - I swear to God it was like he was possessed! Yelling about demons, warning me, thrashing about, different voice, weird eyes, we were trying to restrain him, one friend had him in a sleeper hold, he would not go out or calm down, the guy who had him in the sleeper asked everyone, 'should I put him out?' I admit Me and his Wife thought when he asked that he meant that he didn't 'really' have a sleeper hold and he was going to apply more, everyone around is saying "Yes Yes' he has to go out, will he clocked the guy, he stopped thrashing, was breathing, even kinda snoring for about 30 seconds, that he came to a Freaked out again! Called 911 (Ronnie was working, but didn't answer, did have a text from her on my phone later). He eventually got handcuffed but still had 6 cops holding him down, with him acting possessed, one cop (he was young) said he had never seen anything like this. I'm trying to calm him down, just breathe, just breathe, we are all good, you are going to the Hospital, your Wife and Daughter will stay here tonight and we will get you in the morning. He going back and forth about Demons, Racial slurs (everyone who was around was white) I will Kick all of your asses, I am sorry I don't know why this is happening I Love You guys. the cops kept asking about drugs, I know he does smoke pot occasionally, but He is not a Heavy Drug user and I know he didn't take anything last night - I kinda wish he did and that this was a bad trip. This happened about 2:30, the last thing he remembers was looking for his wife around 12:00 for a cigarette, and he woke up in the Hospital bed in restraints. Cops came and arrested him today from the Hospital for Disorderly Conduct, resisting arrest, and assaulting an Officer.

Not me, although I was thinking of inviting a friend who is a cop.
But nope never had cops show up... My parties are very tame, very small and I don't serve alcohol since there are a lot of underage people at them. They do tend to go on fairly late into the night at times but by that time we are just sitting around watching horror movies so it is quiet.

natascha - sounds like a bad reaction to the alcohol maybe? You said he's normally not a drinker? Maybe it's for that reason.... I know a few people who have bad reactions to alcohol (one of them my ex boyfriend - which is WHY he's my EX! LOL)

My downstairs neighbor/landlord is a cop. But he said he will be at work during the party.

Not yet.....knock on wood! We usually have about 40-45 ppl and try to make sure ppl quiet down around 10:30pm so the neighbors don't get too annoyed with the noise.

I admit, we have gone late, we are out in the County and on a couple acres so our neighbors are far away. If we do a party next year I am sure we will end early!
