Web invite sees village overrun by drunk teens

A small East Cork village was overrun by drunken teens who arrived in throngs on Saturday night after a house party was advertised on the internet via social media websites.

Garda Supt John Quilter said well in excess of 200 teenagers arrived into the village in response to an invite that had spread from the internet.

“It attracted a large crowd. There were some public order issues and some arrests,” said Supt Quilter.
