A few people managed to ruin the fun for everyone, according to the Vernon RCMP.

Between Friday night and Sunday morning, at least 14 arrests were made in connection with the Funtastic event in Vernon.

Gord Molendyk of the Vernon RCMP says although for the most part the large crowds taking part in the four day ball tournament were well behaved, there were a few people whose actions had serious consequences.

“Two men are facing charges of assault after an altercation with officers which involved spitting and blood products. The officers will be okay and the two Vernon men, ages 22 and 24, are facing charges,” says Molendyk.

He says the other arrests made over the weekend were mainly for public drunkenness and impaired driving.

“We got one call from a cab company around 9:30 Saturday night saying that a group of young men walking at Mission Hill Road had thrown rocks at one of their vehicles. My understanding is that the rock didn’t hit the cab. That was the only call we received from the cab company.”

Vernon Cabs stopped service to the Funtastic area around 11:30 p.m. Saturday, with a spokesperson saying event goers were acting too rowdy, throwing rocks at cabs and jumping up and down on the vehicles.
