As the Coronavirus continues to run rampant over the United States, some restless young people are making things a bit difficult for their community.

On Saturday April 25th a house party at an unidentified location, though Chicago locals claim that the area is on the city’s west side, made it’s rounds on the internet. After the video was shared more than 50,000 times in less than 24 hours, locals began phoning the authorities with their concerns.

By now most people know that the virus may not have any effect on people with a strong immune system… but that doesn’t mean that those same people aren’t contagious.

If this happened in your neck of the woods, how would you feel?

In response to the viral social media post the Chicago Police Department issued the following statement:

We are aware of a video circulating on social media depicting a large house party inside of an alleged Chicago residence. While we cannot authenticate the nature or location of the gathering, we want to remind everyone of the social distancing requirements in place. CPD will disperse crowds in violation of social distancing requirements, and if necessary, issue citations or as a last resort, enforce via arrest.
