The revelers obviously did not appreciate the untimely arrival of the police.

A clandestine party bringing together more than a hundred people was interrupted on the heights of Bastia, in the night from Saturday to Sunday, by the gendarmes greeted by "bottle jets", announced the prefecture of Haute-Corse.

The party organized in a building for animals, difficult to access from the village of Vescovato about thirty kilometers from Bastia, was "obviously not organized unexpectedly" since hi-fi equipment was seized by the gendarmes , added the same source.

On their arrival, the soldiers were "victims of throwing bottles and a jet of Molotov cocktail", by the revelers, some of whom were "drunk".

Some 130 people were fined and one person placed in police custody, added the prefecture, which specifies that among the participants were minors.

In a press release, "the prefect once again condemns these serious and irresponsible behaviors" and calls on people to isolate themselves for seven days and to carry out an RT-PCR test at the end.

On the night of April 8 to 9, a clandestine party in a night establishment in Bastia in which a hundred people participated had already been interrupted by the police, three of whom had been injured.

"The police were victims of throwing projectiles and attacked by some participants," said the prefect.
