Police Intervention

If your party gets out of hand, call the police. Officers will come out and help you regain control.

Respond positively if a police officer comes to your house. The officer most likely is responding to a complaint. Make sure the person interacting with police officers at the front door is sober and able to be responsive to officers’ requests.

Interfering with police officers makes a bad situation worse. Use common sense and be cooperative.

When a police officer asks you to clear an area, leave right away. If you stick around to see what’s happening, you may be in a situation where you are interfering with a police officer. If police warn that they are going to use tear gas, you need to quickly get as far away as you can.
