I think it's a matter of time before this will take place in OKC and other cities ... A lot of college students were celebrating this week.. and a lot of them are now in jail.. nine people were arrested last week at a separate party.

What do you think about this ordinance?


EDMOND — Responding to a complaint of a loud party early Wednesday morning, Edmond Police made another arrest under the city’s new Social Host Ordinance.

Officers were called to the 500 block of Boulevard Avenue just before 1 a.m. and, according to a police report, observed several underage drinkers outside.

Zachary Dale Myers, 20, told the officers he lived at the house with two roommates. He said about 80 people were at the party but he didn’t know how many were under the age of 21.

According to the reports Myers told officers, “It’s rush week and well, you know.”

He was arrested on a complaint of permitting or allowing a gathering where minors are consuming alcoholic beverages.

This is the second instance this week for Social Host Ordinance violations. Police were called to a loud party disturbance around 1:20 a.m. Sunday morning at a home in the 2300 block of Naples Way. Police arrested two 19 year olds and a 20 year old at that party under the new

ordinance.

The ordinance allows police to arrest the hosts of any party where underage drinking is allowed. It took effect this month.
