Police put stop to beach bash

Booze seized from youngsters

An illicit beach party in the north of the Island was brought to a halt by police last night.

Residents alerted officers to a group of under-18-year-olds, who were planning a get together in Ballaugh.

More than 50 bottles and cans were seized.

Police have reminded teenagers of the laws surrounding alcohol, possession of which underage can lead to a fine of £500.
