For the sound of it, things got worse because they've taken down the leaders of the gangs. As a result the rank & file are leaderless, so taking pot shots at anything that moves and doesn't wear their colours.

I stay away from Caribana too. There are always several incidents.
On the original topic, more information is slowly coming out. For example:
- The woman whose townhouse the party occurred at claims that it was for children.
- The woman who hosted the party was 'known to police', as the saying goes.
- The party has apparently been an annual event, for at least the last several years.
- The party was being Twittered about as a 'Hennessy Party.' Yeah, the Hip-Hop poseur beverage of choice.
- Two cases of the stuff. That's two dozen bottles, at roughly $60.00 a bottle, and the drinks were free at the party.
All of this, in an assisted housing complex.
