School board meets, honors former trustees

Local police responded to a wedding celebration that got out of hand Oct. 15 at the MH Community and Cultural Center, according to MHPD Sgt. Carson Thomas.

When officers arrived at the scene shortly after 9 p.m., they observed a large group of revelers causing a disturbance in the CCC’s parking lot, located at 17000 Monterey Road. Thomas said the wedding guests were “drunk” and “being stupid.”

A man ran away from the scene when police contacted him, and officers conducted a search. He was later detained and arrested on suspicion of resisting arrest, Thomas said. Officers on scene called for backup from surrounding agencies “because of the large amount of people there,” Thomas said.

Nearby residents reported seeing a police helicopter circling the area, as well as numerous MHPD and Santa Clara County Sheriff’s patrol cars rush to the scene.

Police ordered the remaining wedding guests to leave the CCC, which is owned by the city and is often rented out for private events. The Oct. 15 wedding started earlier that afternoon.
