On Saturday, 05/30/09 into Sunday, 05/31/09, large numbers of teenage and young adults met on South St. via communications sent out over Electronic Social Networking Systems and spontaneously engaged in large scale disorderly acts which required a significant police response to disband the crowds. During the disbanding process, smaller groups of participants broke off from the main crowd and moved through the neighborhood. The Police Dept. will deploy a large force to South St. and the surrounding area to deal with any potential problems this weekend.
