New Jersey

A Morris Township homeowner allowed about 30 people below the legal drinking age to drink alcoholic beverages in his house on Jan. 20, knowing that the party-goers were underage, police said. Morris Township Police Cpt. Mark DiCarlo said police responded to complaints about noise and “quickly discovered” the party in full-swing. He said there were about 30 young people in the house, all being less than 21 years old and about half of them being juveniles.
