Police in Port Moody say they arrested a trio of teenagers who were causing a 'disorderly ruckus' in the city's Suter Brook Village development Monday afternoon.
Around 4:45 p.m., a patrol officer came across 'an intoxicated teen boy' who had parked his vehicle 'in the middle' of the village, blocking traffic, according to a news release from the Port Moody Police Department.
'The boy then entered a nearby delivery truck and attempted to drive it away, but was stopped by the delivery driver,' the release reads.
Police took the boy and his companions – two teen girls who were also intoxicated – into custody for breaching the peace, the PMPD said.
One of the teens damaged a police vehicle and another obstructed a police officer, the department said, adding that the youths were later 'released to their guardians.'
The boy now faces a driving prohibition and vehicle impoundment for his impaired driving, police said.
'The youths were coming from Sasamat lake, which has seen an uptick in calls for service over the past week,' said Const. Sam Zacharias, in the release.
'The operator of this vehicle put the community at risk, and it is fortunate he was intercepted by our officers.'
