Cops Bust Chesterfield Hotel Room Party, Teens Charged

Several teens are facing a drug and alcohol charges after hosting a party in a hotel room in Chesterfield that drew police attention. 

Chesterfield Police said that five males, 21, 20, 19, 18 and 17 years old, were arrested for possession of alcohol, marijuana and drug paraphernalia on March 24 at the Hampton Inn on Swingley Ridge Road.

Police were alerted after noise from the rowdy get-together prompted complaints from other hotel guests. It also resulted in damage to the hotel room with broken furniture and stains from spilled drinks.

The party also involved two minors, a 16-year-old female and a 15-year-old female, who were cited for curfew violation. Chesterfield Police Officer Mike Ryffel said there was no indication that they had been drinking or using drugs.

With many high schools on spring break for the week, Ryffel said more teens were out in the area than unusual. In an unrelated incident, three teenage males were arrested for possession of alcohol and marijuana after being stopped for a suspicious vehicle check on March 23, near County Cork Dr. and Village Green Parkway.

As in the case of the hotel room party, a 16-year-old female and a 14-year-old female who were in the car received citations for curfew violation.
