52 Arrested At Underage Drinking Party In Plainville
PLAINVILLE (CBS) – More than two years after a girl was found dead after an underage drinking party in Plainville, 52 people were arrested over the weekend when police broke up another party in the same town.
Seven of the people arrested were at least 21 years old, while the rest were underage, police said.
Eight girls faced the judge on Monday and were charged with underage drinking. Meanwhile, six men at least 21 years or older also faced the judge and were charged with supplying the alcohol.
One of those men, 21-year-old Daniel Feeney, was seen holding up his middle finger as he walked out of the courtroom.

Police said that they found a large amount of alcohol and marijuana when they arrived on the scene. They said they were originally responding for a parking complaint.
Officers from Foxboro, Wrentham, Attleboro and North Attleboro assisted Plainville police at the scene.
