Danbury police charge 11 with underage drinking

DANBURY -- A complaint about a house party led to the arrest of 11 people early Sunday, police said.

Officers responded to a noise complaint from a resident of Judith Drive just after midnight and found a house full of young people drinking and playing "beer pong," police department spokesman Capt. Thomas Wendel said.

Ten males and a female, all between the ages of 18 and 20, were issued infractions for possession of alcohol by a minor.

The homeowner whose son was hosting the party wasn't present at the time, police said.

"She was out of town and when she was contacted by telephone (she) was very apologetic and cooperated with police," Wendel said.
