cautioned against unpermitted “beach takeover” parties<\/a> being advertised on social media amid sizzling temperatures in the Bay Area.<\/p>\n Police warned about social media-promoted takeovers <\/p>\n
What we know:<\/p>\n
Police said they were monitoring events promoted for Sunday and Tuesday at Crown Memorial State Beach. The events were not permitted.<\/p>\n
The department increased staffing in an effort to prevent the gatherings, which were being promoted to young people.<\/p>\n
One of the events advertised an “assassin-style” game using water guns and water balloons.<\/p>\n
“While this may seem like harmless fun, similar games in the past have led to unintended and dangerous consequences,” police said.<\/p>\n
Fights break out <\/p>\n
Dig deeper:<\/p>\n
On Saturday, officers found about 200 teens gathering at the beach and in an adjacent parking lot.<\/p>\n
Authorities reported four incidents, including three fights. One teen was transported to a local hospital. Another incident involved hate speech.<\/p>\n
Officials have not explicitly said whether Saturday\u2019s incident was a beach takeover, but it comes after warnings from the city about mass, unpermitted gatherings.<\/p>\n
“The City welcomes visitors to our shoreline, but we wanted to remind the public that organized events like this require a permit to ensure adequate safety and staffing,” the city said in a statement.<\/p>\n
