1,000 People Attend Massive College Party In Colorado, Causing Mayhem & Police Injuries
Despite the loss of 6,000 lives, due to COVID-19, upwards of 1,000 people gathered for a massive college party in Colorado. The event ended in mayhem, with police injuries.
The incident occurred on Saturday night (Mar. 6) at the University of Colorado Boulder campus — specifically in an area the students call “The Hill.” Law enforcement officials estimate that upwards of 1,000 people, if not more, partied their tales off without any masks or following any coronavirus regulations.

In addition to being a super spreader event, things turned insanely violent — as if these students tried to recreate the movie ‘Project X.’ Videos and photos have surfaced of students reportedly flipping over cars and committing other crimes of property damage. Things intensified when partygoers refused to leave upon police arrival, which prompted the city’s SWAT unit to respond. During the mayhem, at least three law enforcement officials and first responders were injured and immediately removed.
Since, the university has spoken out. A statement reads, “We condemn this conduct. It is unacceptable and irresponsible, particularly in light of the volume of training, communication and enforcement the campus and city have dedicated to ensuring compliance with COVID-19 public health orders. CU Boulder will not tolerate any of our students engaging in acts of violence or damaging property.”

College students in Boulder had a party with several hundred people in the middle of a pandemic. Boulder PD showed up to disperse the crowd and threatened to arrest people. This is what remains of a car people flipped over and destroyed #9News pic.twitter.com/221GjNNijP

We spoke with the girl who owns this car she stated she hopes whoever did this to her car gets in trouble. She watched her car get destroyed from an upstairs window. @KDVR @channel2kwgn https://t.co/tF4nLfPtE6
