LYNN – A wild party on Arlington Street resulted in five arrests Sunday when police discovered an out of control group reportedly throwing a going away party for a relative leaving for jail. According to a police report, Archibald approached police and said she knew that the music was too loud and that she would turn it down. After police told her that it was after 2 a.m. and that she was in violation of a noise ordinance, she turned around and walked away. While following her, Archibald, turned to police and said, “You can’t (expletive) come in here you (expletive) don’t have a warrant!” At that point, police said they could see at least 50 people in the yard, drinking alcohol from clear plastic cups, while Archibald continued to scream and yell expletives at the police. Junior Charles then approached the police, who told him that the party was over and he needed to shut the music off. He in turn yelled, “I don’t give a (expletive) what time it is, this is my house!” Officers were standing in an entrance to a gate while Archibald continued to yell. Police told her that she would be arrested for disorderly conduct if she continued to carry on on and she said, “Good, then get the (expletive) out of here” and slammed the gate shut, hitting one of the officers in the leg. At that point, more officers arrived and told the unruly crowd to disperse, but Junior and Archibald both yelled, “Nobody has to leave, these racist pigs don’t have a warrant.” William and Wesner were also placed in custody at the time, while Tamara yelled out, “I’m going to sue you, you (expletive) pigs” and was also arrested.

Listen I understand that the police have a job to do. And I understand you can’t be blasting your music at 2am in a nice quiet town like Lynn. But give me a fucking break. This wasn’t like a graduation party or some birthday party we’re talking about. This was a going off to jail party. That’s like the mother of all fucking parties. So as if Lynn doesn’t have enough problems already it looks like their police department is about to get the shit sued out of them. I mean if you’re going to let the police break up going off to jail parties you might as well just rip up the constitution and throw it out the window while you’re at it.
