Police had to shut down an ”out of control” party involving up to 1,000 people Saturday, April 23, in Eugene, Oregon authorities reported.
Some party-goers pelted officers with glass bottles and canned goods, Eugene police said in a news release.
“Something like this is a complete embarrassment for the people who engaged in that party,” Police Chief Chris Skinner said in a statement
. Officers were called to 16th Avenue at 11 a.m. about a large party that began around 10 a.m., police said. They found people “blocking the entire roadway, spreading into the travel lanes and spreading onto neighboring properties” around a three-story apartment building, police said.
Party-goers included underage drinkers, college-age students and some parents, police said.
“We all understand the excitement Spring brings but these irresponsible individuals, including parents and their college-aged children, should be ashamed,” Skinner said in the release.
It took police until 1 p.m. to finish breaking up the party, police told KATU. No arrests were made. The party delayed police responses to other calls, Skinner said.
