Exams party night passes without incident

Twenty additional officers were deployed on ‘Operation Ginger’ and patrolled areas including St Brelade’s Bay, Havre des Pas and Howard Davis Park in an effort to curb anti-social behaviour. Officers visited shops to ask them not to sell alcohol to youths who looked under 18, a tactic that the police say seemed to work as there was little public evidence of under age drinking. Four youths were arrested for drug related offences with officers seizing a commercial amount of cannabis. However, in general, police said that the atmosphere was positive with hundreds of youths acting responsibly while celebrating their results.
