Pro8news and the Laredo Morning Times both reported on a couple of incidents in which people were cited for furnishing alchohol to minors. It seems many younger Laredoans who stayed in town for spring break wanted a little bit of excitement even if it involved the police.
Incident # 1: "Loose control 2011"
Approximately 350 people were partying at La Hacienda, a reception hall located in the 1100 block of Big Bend Boulevard, near midnight Sunday when police arrived on the scene, according to Investigator Jose E. Baeza, Laredo Police Department spokesman.
“There were two kegs of beer, and punch laced with alcohol was found,” Baeza said about the police findings. An investigation revealed that the cover for the event was $10 to $15 per head and wristbands bearing the phrasing “Lose control, 2011” were given out to partygoers. Norma Guadalupe Perez, 43, owner of the venue, was charged with furnishing alcohol to a minor, a Class A misdemeanor
Incident # 2: No adults in charge
About 20 minutes after police found the first venue allegedly teeming with underage drinkers, they received another report of the same nature.
“LPD received another call of a party in the 2400 block of Bermuda,” Baeza said. “It was reported that minors were being provided alcoholic beverages, 15 people were in attendance and no one 21 years of age was present.” A 17-year-old identified as Alejandra Edith Perez was charged with 15 counts of furnishing alcohol to a minor after it was found she was in control of the party.
