Philadelphia police spent nearly an hour breaking up a group of about 200 people who had gathered in the city’s Brewerytown section to listen to a DJ, 6ABC reported.
Police say the crowd got larger as word of the gathering spread on social media, and helicopter footage from the TV station showed that many of the gatherers, including some of the officers, were not wearing masks.
No injuries were reported in the gathering, which is prohibited under the state’s current guidelines. Philadelphia remains in the red phase of the state’s tiered reopening plan, meaning a stay-at-home order is still in place and large gatherings may not occur.
Police arrested two men in the incident, one who they say refused to leave and put his hands on an officer and another who was found to have an illegal gun in his car after getting into a crash, CBS Philadelphia reported.
CBS Philadelphia also reported that no one was hurt and no one was cited for violating the stay-at-home order.
