Over 70 people have been reported for attending a boat party in Ealing, West London, and are under consideration for a fixed penalty notice of £800 each.
Met Police were called to Volt Avenue, North Acton shortly after 11pm on Saturday, 30 January to reports of a large gathering on a moored boat.
The group was dispersed and a total of 72 people were reported for the consideration of fixed penalty notices of £800 for attending an indoor gathering of more than 15 people in breach of the Coronavirus regulations.
The organiser was identified and reported for consideration of a £10,000 fixed penalty notice.
Detective Chief Inspector Thomas Bowen, of the Metropolitan Police, said: “This was a blatant breach of the Coronavirus rules that are in place to save lives and protect the huge pressure on the NHS.
“All the people who attended this event, which appears to have been organised on social media, have quite rightly been reported for the consideration of fines.
