Police break up 'drink and sex' Purim party

Three hundred young Purim revellers in Manchester were moved on by police for drinking, dangerous driving and what was described as "explicit behaviour" on the front lawn of a yeshivah.

Jewish teenagers mainly from the Prestwich, Whitefield and south Manchester areas, descended on the Broughton Park area of north Manchester on Saturday night, prompted by a Facebook alert.

The night passed without major incident and spirits were generally good, but police officers had been asked to patrol the area by residents who feared a repeat of an incident last year.

Then, ambulances were called to treat two girls who were taken to hospital with serious alcohol poisoning. Hundreds of youths had spent the night in the unlit Clowes Park.

A member of the strictly Orthodox Broughton Park Citizens' Patrol, a local community group, said problems had come from youth from outside the area.

The patrol had co-ordinated its security operation with police this year following safety concerns for youngsters and in order to reduce rowdy behaviour. "Last year a girl was left in a serious condition. There was concern after we heard that a Facebook page said young people were having a rave in the park this year," he said.
