Unofficial gaining steam on campus

CHAMPAIGN – Police shut down an apartment party at the 15th annual Unofficial St. Patrick's Day in Champaign just before 11 a.m. and three students were ticketed for having multiple kegs.

Seventeen people were issued ordinance violations for minors in possession of alcohol at the party, which was at 54 E. Chalmers St., C, said Champaign police Sgt. Scott Friedlein, a veteran of all the previous Unofficial St. Patrick's Days.

“The officers discovered a party out of control,” Friedlein said. “We shut it down, issued the tickets and released them with good warning that the next time, we might not be so kind.”

Police are making stops of anyone seen carrying alcohol, open or packaged, on the streets, Friedlein said. About 40 city ordinance violation citations have been issued.

A sea of green has taken over U of I's campus for Unofficial St. Patrick's Day.

Police are keeping a watchful eye on the celebrations from afar. About 15 people are working around the clock at the Central Command Center.

That's where they'll keep an eye on the 300 campus surveillance cameras. Members of Champaign, Urbana, U of I and Illinois State Police are there, along with representatives from the university.

They'll be working around the clock until around 4 a.m. monitoring campus.
