Officers responded to the area and found these two loitering in the rear lot and of course recognized them from the area.

Sept. 2, 11:20 p.m.
Two uninvited guests attempted to crash a party on the 600 block Cheyney Rd. The party hosts were confused because the uninvited were already intoxicated, so they asked them to leave. This led to a physical altercation and officers arrived to end it. Aimee Barry, 42, of Drexel Hill and Jason Drobel, 44, of Rydal, Pennsylvania, were both found to be drunk. They were unable to care for themselves nor were they cooperative with finding a ride home, so they were taken to headquarters by police. Both were charged with disorderly conduct and public drunkenness.
