Posted:
HANFORD, Calif. (KMPH) -

A tip led Kings County gang officers to bust a large house party that resulted in more than 20 arrests.

It happened around 11:30 p.m. Friday along the 500 block of East Cameron in Hanford.

Officers had surveillance on the home and eventually moved in. They say about 100 people were in the home, drinking and smoking marijuana.

Three children were also inside the home. Officers say the kids ran up and hugged them pleading for help. The kids told officers their mother was at work and they were scared.

Hanford Police believe the 16-year-old babysitter is the one who threw the party.

23 adults, between the ages of 18 and 24, were arrested. Officers also cited 50 teens and pre-teens.

Police say the youngest person caught drinking was just 11 years old.
