"The party goers were causing a large neighborhood-wide disturbance, with several hundred young people outside," the department said.

Officers responded around 10:45 p.m. and ordered those gathered to disperse. The department said a "prolonged police presence was necessary to clear the area," and the Minnesota State Patrol aided in conducting traffic stops.

A neighbor told WCCO the neighborhood looks like a "trash dump" after the party.

Last weekend, police also had to disperse a crowd of several hundred people in Brooklyn Park.
