NEWARK, Essex County (WABC) Two Essex county women have been arrested for serving alcohol after police received reports of a COVID violation.
Rosa Maintano, 23, and Fanny Camas, 27, both of Irvington, were charged with maintaining an unlicensed liquor establishment. It s incredible how once again people put wealth over health, said Newark Public Safety Director Anthony Ambrose in a statement. It s selfish people like this who perpetuate the spread.
The arrests stemmed from complaints of two large parties over the weekend at the same location.
Officers arrived late Saturday night at a building in the 200 block of Verona Avenue to find 150 to 200 people not wearing masks and drinking beer as a soccer game was being played.
