Another club "raided"

41 charged in raid on after-hours club

SHIVAN MICOO

March 21, 2009

Forty-one people were arrested and charged early yesterday morning after police raided an after-hours club in the city's Chinatown district.

The raid at 434 Dundas St. West, near Spadina Avenue, was carried out by officers from 52 Division's vice squad.

Constable Tony Vella, a spokesman for Toronto police, said "community complaints" about late night drinking and drug use led to an investigation of the club and the raid.

Of the 41 people arrested on drug, alcohol and other Criminal Code offences, four appeared at Old City Hall court for bail hearings yesterday. The same club was raided last December. The name of the club was not released by police.

The only place i can think of around there is Film... that right?

Do ya think that because of the recent lawsuit the owners of CZ have filed the cops are gonna start harassing the other clubs more to make it look as tho they are cracking down on everyone? Just a thought...

i don't think they'll start harassing other clubs to make it look like they are cracking down on everyone... i think they're just being tight ass cops who are trying to do their job... it didn't really start with CZ and it's not going to end there either... drugs are used everywhere and cops will always try to put a stop to it.

Film is on the other side of the street if I recall correctly.

i've been to 434 Dundas before, a friend of mine had heard of it. If you didn't know it was there I don't know how you would ever find it. Go up some sketchy stairs and it opens up into a small room. Lots of weird people around but the tunes were topnotch. Had a good time.

LOL

i've had a lot of fun at booze can parties, but ultimately, I'm still for removing the whole concept of last call altogether..

Posted by teufel-man on Mar-23-2009 05:51:

Is 'booze can' some sort of slang that I am unfamiliar with... does this mean like illegal afterhours bar or something...?

Posted by PurpleHaze on Mar-23-2009 13:03:

Ya pretty much. Alcohol after last call.

This place got raided again back in December too lol.

i've dj'd there a couple of times.
wouldn't have been raided if they kept the noise down.
as long as these aftrhrs are self contained cops usually don;t care about these things.

it's true.. who knows how many of these parties go on across the city each weekend. As long as they're not advertised and being held on a private premises, I doubt cops would care?
