Asking strangers to join your high school house party via social media with the Twitter hashtag #mansionparty has proven to be a bad idea for a Brampton party planner. A house party in Toronto suburb Brampton got out of hand after it acquired its own locally trending hashtag #mansionparty. In response to numerous 911 calls from neighbors, a total of 60 police units, including tactical officers and k-9 units, attended the 5,000 square foot home on Stanley Carberry Drive in Brampton.
The officers cracked the party that had approximately 2,000 attendants late Friday night. Police sources confirm that several arrests were made mostly for minor infractions like underage drinking. According to the police, it contacted the home on early Friday morning to warn that the home owner and mother of the party’s planner that her house was being promoted on social media for a massive party. However, she answered that “I told my son he could have some friends over.” Clearly, mother and son had different views about how many friends “some” actually means.
Reports confirm that the Brampton mansion, which was apparently still under construction, suffered an estimated $70,000 in damage. According to a statement to local community paper, The Brampton Guardian, Peel Police Constable Thomas Ruttan stated that “we want to make the public aware that social media may not be the best place to advertise the party, simply because we’re not really aware of just how far-reaching social media really is.”
