Two Westbrook High School students, who were among the student-athletes involved in a high-profile underage drinking party this spring, are facing new charges after getting into a fight at the high school Saturday, police said.
Capt. Tom Roth said police were called around 6:40 p.m. Saturday about a fight at the high school between Ryan Gilligan and Collin Joyce, both 18.
Both men fled the scene when police arrived. Gilligan was caught and charged with disorderly conduct, refusing to submit to arrest, violation of conditional release and possession of liquor by a minor. He was taken to Cumberland County Jail.
Joyce, who police later identified from an in-cruiser video, was summoned Monday for disorderly conduct and refusing to submit to arrest. Both are scheduled to be arraigned in Portland District Court on Aug. 5, Roth said.
In April, police broke up an underage drinking party at Gilligan’s home where he was charged with refusing to submit to arrest and furnishing a place for minors to drink. Joyce, who was at the party, was summoned for consumption of liquor by a minor.
