31 arrested at underage drinking party

ALDEN, N.Y. (WIVB) - 31 kids were arrested late Thursday night and charged with underage drinking in the Village of Alden.

Authorities say a 17-year-old hosted a party at his home on Maple Ridge Drive when his parents were out of town. Deputies broke it up just before midnight and discovered an unresponsive girl in the basement, who was taken to ECMC for treatment. All 31 minors were charged with underage possession of alcohol. Two other kids were each charged with disorderly conduct, obstruction of governmental administration and harassment for attempting to stop deputies from entering the home.

Erie County Sheriff's deputies were tipped off on their anonymous underage drinking line, which also serves Genesee, Orleans, Wyoming and Monroe Counties. That number is: 1-800-851-1932
