The Texas City Dike was reportedly forced to have an emergency closure after officials say people who were at the beach for a party got out of hand Saturday night.
According to Texas City Police Department’s Sgt. Allen Bjerke, the group responsible had been promoting a beach party on social media, however, they didn’t have any permits for the event which caused them to cancel.Officials say that area was also being populated by visitors with the annual Hall of Fame Fishing Tournament and regular beachgoers.
Bjerke said the closure came after police received several calls of shots fired. There were also arrests for drugs, weapons, and alcohol violations.Copyright 2022 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.Moriah Ballard joined the KPRC 2 digital team in the fall of 2021.
