KITTERY, Maine (AP) - Police have charged 19 teenagers from Maine and New Hampshire in connection with an underage drinking party.
Police said they confiscated over $350 worth of beer kegs and bottles of whiskey, vodka, rum and tequila from the Saturday party at a house in Kittery. They said organizers were charging $7 per head to attend and involved several pickup points so as not to draw attention to the event.
Police said the teenagers all knew each other from having attended St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Dover, N.H.
Police charged 19-year-old Ryan Price of the residence with a misdemeanor of furnishing a place for minors to consume alcohol. They allowed Price to cancel the party and notify others not to show up. Others were cited for alcohol-related violations.
