What to do if your party
starts to get out of control
ICall the police yourself if uninvited guests disrupt your party or if guests won't pay attention to your
requests to leave and obey the law. Call before things get too out of control.
Respond positively if a police officer
comes to your house. The officer is most
likely responding to a complaint. Do as
much as possible to comply with what
the police are asking you to do.
Interfering with a police officer makes a bad situation worse.
Do not physically resist the officer under any circumstance. If
you have committed a crime and a police officer asks you to
identify yourself, you need to do so. Giving a false name is a
separate offense and will likely escalate what might have
been a citation into a trip to jail.

Understand that you can be arrested. A police officer may take
someone into custody of any violation of law that carries a
potential jail penalty. For some violations, an officer may detain
you while verifying your identity and issuing a citation.
When a police officer asks you to clear an area, leave right away.
If you stay around after the warning to watch what's happening,
you may be cited for interfering with a police officer.
6 If police warn that they are going to use tear gas,
you need to get as far away as fast as you can.
