Sandwich Police Bust Underage New Year’s Eve Drinking Party

It went down like something out of a movie. Sandwich police officers broke up an underage drinking party on New Year's Eve sending teens running through the woods to get away just an hour before midnight. According to Cape Cod Today, the parent of a Sandwich teen learned about the party at 9 Windsong Road in Forestdale and reported it to police.

Several teens reportedly ran from the property when officers arrived at the home. The officers entered and spoke with the 52-year-old homeowner, who allegedly hosted the party for his two teens and their friends. The party goers reportedly ranged in age from 15 to 19.

Officers requested 34 criminal applications for minors in possession of alcohol and a 17-year-old girl was transported to the hospital with what was believed to be alcohol poisoning. The homeowner will be charged with procuring alcohol for minors and keeper of a disorderly house. The owners of the home are listed as Brian and Christine Cunning.
