LA Sheriff Superspreader Task Force detains 900 during NYE party busts
By Bill Melugin
LOS ANGELES - The LA County Sheriff Department’s Superspreader Task Force shut down at least five New Year's Eve parties across the county, resulting in at least 900 people being detained, 90 arrests and/or citations, and the recovery of at least six guns.
FOX 11’s cameras were at three of the parties, including Malibu, downtown LA, and Pomona.
The Malibu party was held at a large, upscale home on Moonrise Dr. after it had been promoted on Instagram.
LASD showed up outside the home in the middle of the party, warning the crowd on a loudspeaker that "this is the LA County Sheriff’s Department. This superspreader party is now over. Anybody who refuses to leave will be subject to arrest."
