100 People At the party

Apparently, officers got word of the party after a woman who was invited called to report it once she arrived and saw how huge it was. 

Vancouver police said that the party was so big that there was even a doorman with a protective vest, a capacity counting device like in an actual bar and a whole bunch of money. 

The host of this party is no stranger to throwing events during COVID-19. 

Local law enforcement has received a number of complaints about parties at this specific apartment. 

"VPD investigators are now working with Crown counsel to obtain court-ordered conditions that will prohibit the apartment owner from hosting large parties," says the news release.
