What are the videos called?

Looks like 90 % normal kids doing a normal type big party of the type that has been going on for the last 50 years and have been shut down by local police that had the brains and control to break up a party without causing violence. I would venture to say your local police came in like storm troopers and SWAT and helped cause 50% of the whole maylay. An investigation of this police response needs to be done to see what really happened to esculate the mess that transpired. All you Livermore residents that never have had any dealings with your local police Dept can't just blindly trust the proper performance of your local police department . The Video does not show a large group of gang bangers to me, but more like a local Jr college crowd with normal hair styles and few tat's having a typical drinking party which normally gets broken up peacefully by a level headed local police Dept. Sadly you don't and haven't had one in Livermore for quit some time since the days of the downtown riot. The riot was also easy to avoid happening with more tact and common sense. Livermore back then paid 10k to investigate the cause of the riot which anyone could of told them for free was too much police agression and force applied to the situation. Doesn't look like LPD has learned a thing and wasted 10k on the outside study back then and their officers must be watching too many shootem up Cop shows on TV while they are off duty. The local police lovers will be mindlessly blasting me. I Don't C

If you cannot figure what Tyler is trying to say here, then I think that you should look up the definition of idiot in the dictionary. Nicole can dance, so she must be a friend of mine!

I was this age in the early to mid 90's and had quite a few parties when my parents were out of town and there were a lot of people there, looked a lot like this video with all the people. There was one time when there was a fight, and LPD came and broke it up and there was no violence, no batons, etc. But then again the guys fighting did not resist arrest and did what the police told them to do. I also had my parties broken up a few times by the LPD after receiving complaints of loud noise/music and they always came and told us to shut down and we did.

As a father, a retired law enforcement officer, and long time resident of Livermore – I have been sickened by many of the comments regarding these incidents. The comments on how it must be LPD’s fault because of, “something I heard about”, or “my friend who got arrested said,” or “the riots 30 years ago” – These guys do great things every day. The comments of how this is just a party like all others and it’s no big deal, or I did the same when I was a kid are just sad. We are not living in the same world as when I was a kid-that is certain.

It’s bad enough that the young adults (18+) at this party were obviously drinking to excess and out of control, but there were juveniles at the party being influenced by this behavior. What are the results of this? Didn’t a 17 year old just recently die driving drunk in Livermore? Didn’t a 17 year old kid attack a cop at this party? Didn’t the guy who lived there get arrested for theft two days later? Aren’t the majority of these kids drinking under age and contributing to the delinquency of minors? Regardless of your opinions about the police – this is not OK. There is no justification for this kid or the other man to attack an officer. I would have thought the comments on here would so clearly be shock at the attack - but sadly its more of a justification as to why these poor young men might attack a cop and break his leg - what has the world come to?

The problem here is not the police – they have publicly asked for any persons with complaints to contact them – they are being transparent and open about this. I think the attention needs to focus on the drunken out of control thugs / young adults / juveniles who were apparently at this party. I believe we as a community should stand up and support our police – they answer our calls for help no matter how large or small – and as in this case, become injured as a part of it – we need to support them openly and proudly. Two police officers attacked in weeks and we read about how it must be there fault - or how they may have responded to events weeks and years ago in a way disagreeable to the poster - how ridiculous.

Eric you really think there are no bad cops in Livermore? You must stay at home every night. Yes this party got out of hand. We agree. I was at the party. I am no thug. I've maintained a 3.5 gpa through high school and do far in college. You're sayin you never went to a party and drank in college before 18? You are way to conservative and need live a little if so. You also weren't there watching the two cops talking shit to the kids before roughing them up. The kid did make the wrong choice and hit him but he got brutally beat by 6 cops. You're telling me I dont know the story as I watched it all?? Don't put everyone in the same category. And for the record about him breaking his leg.. He gets paid a good salary and benefits handle situations such as this. No pity from me. I am not saying the kids who got arrested are right just that both sides should have responded better.

Hey Eric. You are so right. Wanna hear something on top of this?? The 17 year old who punched the cop is also the same kid that gave the car keys back to the 17 year old who died a couple months ago when someone else took his keys away from him. Not many people know that info.

Saucy Jack.....you are an a disappointment. First off, when a kid turns 18 they are considered an adult and can leave home and live on their own. This house was a house occupied by 18 year olds, not parents that let them have the run of the house......you really should get your story straight. I know a lot of those kids that were at the party and they are good kids and not criminals and social deviants....and those that I know come from good homes and great parents...you must not be a parent yourself because you really talk out of your ass about kids. I in no way condone what the two kids did to the police officer and I believe the justice system will take care of them, but there behavior is not a reflection of every kid that was at that party.

anonymous, i was and still am best friends with the 17 year old that dies 3 months ago to this day and i was also bestfriends with the other 17 that resisted arrests. this party was nothing like a thug party, half the kids there have never even been in handcuffs before. you can not blame some one for some one elses death or that leads to another death you idiot. you probably were at neither of these functions where these two things occurred, you are probably a nosy ignorant person.

kids go out and party with there friends and as a parent you should know that, you cant be responsible for your kids actions at all times. and you are dumb as a doorknob if you think your child is one of those angels. all this is is a nosy website about peoples business. i was at this party and have never been arrested in my life, and i was put in handcuffs and tackled to the ground just because my friend resisted arrest.

look at "PM"'s comment, theyve got it right

I seriously do not understand how people can be blaming the police whatsoever. Underage drinking is illegal, the police showed up because of multiple 911 calls from neighbors, if a police officer has to come and break up a party, you dont maul the police and break their leg. Come on now. I hope that everyone involved gets punished to the fullest extent. Obviously this kid is bad news if he is the one who gave David his keys to drive when he was intoxicated, and now hes assaulting officers, Im glad hes off the streets. Same for Dallas, at least I know I wont be robbed by him. They totally deserve it and the officer was just doing his job.

cmk, do i know you?

We all have our way of parenting. My kid was at that party and is not a criminal or social deviant....lol, that just makes me laugh it is so ridiculous. The two in question that assaulted the police office were in the wrong and will be dealt with by our justice system. And I am NOT letting underage drinking happen just because I allow my kid have a late curfew....goodness, most of these kids are 18 or older isn't that considered an adult, should they have a 8:00 pm curfew.....If my kids decides to drink then the consequences will be theirs to deal with....I have set the foundation and I can not be with them 24/7 or put them in a box until whenever.....

Don't u dare talk about those kids like that u guys are so rude u did this to at some point and don't bring our beloved david in this May He Rest In Peace sure they did things that weren't proper but forget and forgive u guys just need to mind ur own business and stop talking s***

Sadly I way too many at the party and the parties every weekend. These are not kids that drink once in a while these are kids that are getting drunk weekly. And not just a beer to let off steam. They talk about their weekly black outs. So some of you "adults" with the kids will be kids attitudes will be the same one's sobbing and saddened later when more of these kids end up with DUI's, drinking problems and sadly more deaths due to excessive alcohol use. This is not an occasional party say a few times a year. This is a bad habit these kids have decided to partake in. And a bad habit that is going to continue to end in sad stories on Monday's news page. Maybe you need to acquaint yourselves with more of the youth at this party to see this is not all just good clean fun but a serious teen issue in Livermore. Why not ask some people that work with the teens in this community everyday and get some education on what our youth are really up too. Maybe we can start helping some of these kids instead of just passing it off as kids will be kids. It's a lot easier to keep telling yourself that then deal with the real issues at hand. That our youth are drinking and taking drugs at an alarming amount because they are hurting. Let's help them instead of continuing to turn a blind eye.

There are only two sides here. Why don't each of you stop being so biased and open your eyes and think about the other side.

I am a high school senior and I was not at this party, but I do have friends that attended and I did know the 17 year old. I can tell you factually that about 75% of our senior class has partied before. Some of the kids you wouldn't even think of. Everyone tries it at some point. And even more now a days. it is seriously pathetic, I can promise you that your kid has drinken at one point behind your back, maybe just to try it out. But you cannot blame bad parenting for these kids actions, like come on! Parents do the best they can to teach their kids right and wrong, and there are outside influences that convince kids to do the wrong thing sometimes. But that's part of growing up. We grow up and we learn from our mistakes. I personally have had my fair share of drinks in the past and have made my own mistakes and I have learned from them and have become a better person from it. The boy comes from a very kind family who I know have tried their very best to raise their kids, but it gets harder to control them as they get older. They grow up and want to be their own person with their own opinions. I know many of the young adults that were at the party. They may not be the most angelic people in the world but they are just like me. They're growing and learning. Most of

To rebel. With certain guidelines you should let your kids have a late cerfew and you should let them go to parties. If they don't go, then they wont know what the experience is like and they will just wanna go more. Im not saying to let them get smashed, but don't shelter them like they're your property. They need to grow up somehow and im sure many of the young adults at this party have seriously learned from this. A handful of these kids are bad kids. They rob houses (Dallas), they assault cops....but do yo honestly think all those 100anyway kids

are horrible kids. Most of them are graduated from hs. And most of those people there were over the age of eighteen. They all were unaccounted by their parents. And the seventeen year old was just shy of his 18th bday when this all occurred. Its not like all the older kids were like oh ya dude! Let's let 16 and 17 year old kids party with us.

I would also like to point out that im completely against what happened to the police officer. Those boys have a whole lot of hurt comin to them then the full heartily diserve. Under any circumstance (with limited exceptions such as ones that are ludicrous and unthinkable), one should not injure an authority figure. I just think the youth are naive about the police and that is why they have such little respect for them. But at the same time, have you heard what the boys have said or do you even know why Adrian jumped on the cops back? And just because he's Mexican made many believe that this was gang related. I thought us as Americans and as a community have stopped the racism and biasm.

My heart goes out to David! Happy bday man!

To Mark Tarte, I lived in Livermore for 30 years and have plenty of CLUES about the conduct of LPD. We have argued this point before. I was an adult with two adult friends caught up in your downtown riot and we were also injured by projectiles ment for police by being turned back from walking near the post office. The hole dam event was completely avoidable. Name one town in the east bay that also had cruising problems that provocated a riot . Answer : NONE. It was a fad that faded on its own due to gas prices etc. Your LPD got injured and the town busted up because you couldn't resist the use of force to stop a activity that had been going on around the east bay for over 25 years. It was a foolish waste of resources and avoidable property damage to local business. But thats just one story of Livermore police work. The Livermore past has a Chief of police for LPD leaving his position due to child molestation accusations. Absolute past racist officers harassing local blacks during traffic stops and drawing bones in the noses of their ID's before sending them on their way, told to me by the retired disabled officer himself. False charges of resisting arrest against residents, as that is one charge an officer can make of his own discretion to create jail time. Stories of unappropriate rookie initiation parties where senior officers lined chairs around a bed and watched the rookie perform a sex act with a call girl. So you have your opinion of Livermore's finest and I have mine.

I have lived here over 30years and my boys grew up here.The Livermore Police have always been professional and we have never had any problem with them.
I will say that after 3 of their own have been injured, they would be expected to be
on the alert and not put up with stupidity, provocation,disrespect,vandalism,or lawbreakers. If anyone is out there trying to test them at this time, you will deserve
what you get. They have a job to do and have done it well and need all our support.

any follow up on this story?
