San Francisco authorities shut down underground nightclub

More than 150 people packed into an illegal nightclub in San Francisco during two days of secret partying before authorities shut it down.

San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott and City Atty. Dennis Herrera announced Monday that they shut down an underground nightclub for violating the city’s public health order in the first such move to enforce the measure to slow the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

“The operators of this illegal club senselessly put lives at risk in a time when our city is doing everything within our means to slow the spread of this pandemic and safeguard the health and well-being of the public,” Scott said.

San Francisco, which was among the first cities in California to implement a stay-at-home public health order, has seen 15 deaths and 957 residents who tested positive for COVID-19 as of Monday morning.

Next you're going to tell me that some illicit drugs were found at the scene, and the music was playing at unsafe levels for human hearing.

I was never the one harping about the FL spring breaker kids ... though the authorities should've stepped in ... which they did in this present case.
