March 24 Miscellaneous
Forty subjects doth a party make on Miramonte Drive. The resident was found in violation; subjects were instructed to party less heartily.

March 25 Simple assault
A party went from bad to worse when officers responded to reports of unwanted guests at a residence. Revelers asked to leave turned violent, lobbing bottles and attacking party-goers. They fled but were identified and detained by a neighboring police force. The Fight Club mentality persisted though, as another fight broke out. No one was seriously injured, all declined medical assistance and strangely, no one wanted to be prosecuted for battery or vandalism.

Moraga police department received...very carefully...what was thought to be explosive device(s) from a resident. Police then...very quickly...evacuated the entire Town Hall.
