FARMINGTON — Four students at the University of Maine at Farmington were arrested on a charge of furnishing a place for minors to consume alcohol Friday after police were called to a loud party on Middle Street.
Around 10:30 p.m., police arrived at 109 Middle St. to hear loud music from the top-floor apartment and see about a dozen students leaving.
When police found the tenants, they discovered that only one was of legal drinking age, having turned 21 on April 17. The tenants admitted to celebrating the weekend after a long week at school, Farmington police secretary Rachel Heseltine said.
Those charged were Brian Nolan, 20, Topsham; Derek Reilly, 20, Hollis, N.H.; Joseph Paine, 21, Limerick; and Jordan Luks, 19, Oakland.
Each were bailed from Franklin County Detention Center on $100 cash.
More than 20 people also seen walking away on High Street were believed to be at the party, she said.
Farmington Officers Justin Blais, Daryn Gilbert and Sgt. Eddie Hastings responded to the call.
