Deputies bust underage drinking party

Grant County deputies cited 13 people on Saturday night for underage drinking at a party in a farm house just south of Ten Mile Lake, law enforcement reported.

At 5:30 p.m., the Otter Tail County Sheriff’s Office received an anonymous tip that a party with underage drinking and marijuana would take place that night near the county line.

Grant County deputies, assisted by Otter Tail and Ashby officers, began patrolling the area around 9 p.m. Deputies pulled over a suspicious car and were directed to a farm house off of County Highway 26, the road that runs the Grant/Otter Tail county line.

Once they arrived, deputies broke up the party and allegedly found several under-21 adults drinking alcohol, as well as one person with a small amount of marijuana. The offenders were cited at the scene.
