FARMINGTON — Three women pleaded guilty Thursday to allowing minors to consume or possess alcohol at a New Year’s Eve party.

Dozens of college students, some younger than 21, were at the apartment on Middle Street in Farmington, Sgt. Edward Hastings IV said in January. He said he parked in the parking lot of University Credit Union, at the intersection of High and Middle streets, and he could hear the noise. It was very evident from the outside that a party was going on, he said.
