St. Patrick’s Day in Park City: drunkenness, partying and crowds
The Park City Police Department last week handled numerous cases involving drunkenness, partying or crowds, apparently the result of St. Patrick’s Day falling on what was anticipated to be a busy ski weekend as well.
Police officers handled calls along Main Street and elsewhere in Park City. Some of them were reported as intoxication while others were classified as disorderly conduct.
Some of the cases reported last week included:
The Police Department, meanwhile, indicated it intervened in cases when nightclubs were playing music that could be heard outside. On Saturday, March 16 at 11:18 p.m., an officer warned a nightclub on the 400 block of Main Street to turn off the outside music. The day before, on Friday, March 15, the sound from an outdoor speaker on the 300 block of Main Street, was too loud, the police said. The sound was turned down and the establishment was informed of City Hall rules regulating outdoor speakers. The case was logged at 11:34 p.m.
