Happy New Year! Concord Man, 20 Others in Court Next Month After Party Bust

When Concord District Court holds its arraignment session on Feb. 9, it’s going to be packed with underage residents after 21 people were busted early New Year’s Day at an underage drinking party in the northern part of the city.

Christian J. Martin, 19, of Cremin Street in Concord, was arrested at 2:22 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2015, and charged with facilitating a drug or underage alcohol house party, unlawful possession of alcohol, possession of controlled drugs, and penalties; control of premises where a controlled drug is kept.

Also charged were Holly N. Tillotson, 20, of Cedar Lane in Bow; Harrison Beck, 20, of Bow Bog Road in Bow; Kyle Barrington, 17, of Clearview Drive in Bow; Samuel Evans, 20, of Brown Hill in Bow; Emily Vulagmore, 20, of Stoney Brook Road in Bow; Frank Demaria, 17, of Auras Way in Bow; Ian Avery, 19, of Dow Road in Bow; Austin Martin, 18, of Page Road in Bow; Ian C. Steward, 20, of South Street in Concord; Jonathan Patch, 19, of Buckingham Drive in Bow; Kiana LaRoche, 19, of Checkerberry Lane in Concord; Andres V. Hanson, 20, of Grandview Road in Bow; Jacy Parker, 20, of Carriage Road in Bow; Christopher Barrington, 20, of Clearview Drive in Bow; Robert Lougee, 19, of Laurel Drive in Bow; Jack Lyman Minery, 20, of Currier Road in Loudon; Grace Evers Pecci, 18, of Holliston, MA; Nikos S. Klampalikis, 20, of Tower Hill Road in Bow; and Jacey Fedion, 20, of Adonis Court in Concord, were all charged with unlawful possession of alcohol.

At around 11:45 p.m. on Dec. 31, 2014, officers and a sergeant were sent to Cremin Street to investigate a tip that came in to the Concord Regional Crimeline about a possible underage drinking party, according to an arrest and numerous summons reports.

When they arrived, they found several vehicles in the driveway of the mobile home and heard numerous voices inside. As the reporting officer approached the front door, a male, later identified as Klampalikis, looked through the window blind at the police approaching the home.

“Once this happened, it sounded like a herd of stampeding cattle running toward the rear of the mobile home,” the officer reported.

Another officer reported that other people were looking out of windows, scurrying around, and shutting off lights.

After officers knocked on the door, Martin reportedly came out to speak with them. He allegedly smelled like alcohol and had glassy, bloodshot eyes with dilated pupils and was unsteady on his feet and slurring his speech. Martin reportedly stated there were about 10 people inside and at least three over the age of 21. He was also “very cooperative” during the process, according to police. Red Solo cups, beer cans, and hard liquor bottles were strewn around, according to the report, as well as various drinking game setups.

The reporting officer yelled down the hall for everyone to come out and about 20 to 25 people emerged.

A few minors that “appeared to be in distress from their alcohol consumption” were in a back room and a bathroom found to be vomiting and passed out, according to the report. Concord Fire and Rescue teams were called to examine some of the partygoers.

Police issued summonses to the attendees and assisted in getting rides for them while other officers questioned Martin about the marijuana smell in the home. He allegedly handed over two bags of marijuana to the police, several glass smoking devices, and a grinder, according to the report.

All are scheduled to be arraigned in court on Feb. 9.
