Police in Brampton, Canada, broke up a massive party Friday night after more than 1,500 teens showed up to a "mansion party" that had been promoted on Twitter and other social media, according to multiple reports.
The organizer reportedly hired security, and was charging a fee to get into the party, which took place in a partially built house in an upscale neighborhood
Police estimated that between 1,500 and 2,000 teens were at the party by the time they arrived on scene to break it up at 9:50 p.m local time, less than an hour after it started, CBC reported.
That so many turned out in such a short period of time demonstrates how quickly news of the party spread on social media, particularly Twitter. Partygoers tweeted about their escapades using the hashtag #MansionParty, which quickly became a trending topic, The Sun reported.
6 windows broken, I'm told the banister collapsed and numerous holes in the wall. |
