US couple charged after party for teenage son draws hundreds
Aubrey Vaughan and Lisa Vaughan face charges following a gathering in McLean that police say involved underage drinking and fireworks.
A couple in McLean, Virginia, has been arrested after a party for their teenage son allegedly drew between 100 and 300 youngsters to their home on November 6, according to the Times of India.
Fairfax County Police charged Aubrey Vaughan, 55, and Lisa Vaughan, 45, with maintaining a common nuisance and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Officers arrived at the Woodacre Drive property after 9 pm following neighbour complaints. They reported finding intoxicated teenagers, the smell of alcohol, and fireworks being set off outside the residence.
During the incident, police encountered a large crowd of teenagers in the backyard, with some individuals climbing down porch scaffolding and others gathered on the stairs.
Lisa Vaughan told officers that they had been supervising the event and had checked backpacks to prevent underage drinking, though she denied that alcohol was present.
Aubrey Vaughan said the couple intended to supervise their son's celebration and did not expect older students to attend the eighth-grade party. The couple was released on $1,000 unsecured bonds each after turning themselves in at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center.
