Nine teens arrested for allegedly trespassing at country club

Nine teens were arrested early Tuesday morning for trespassing after allegedly using the swimming pool at the Cape Girardeau Country Club without permission, police said.

Cape Girardeau police responded to the country club around 1:20 a.m. Tuesday after a neighbor complained about the noise, said Cpl. Adam Glueck, spokesman for the police department.

When police arrived, they found the teenagers in the pool area, and one was allegedly caught with a small amount of marijuana and some used pipes in his backpack, Glueck said.

Some of the teens were employees at the country club, said general manager Brad Twidwell.

I’m guessing that they’re all white, because some of them were country club employees.

That said, as we found out from last week near Philadelphia, evicting people all of the same race from a swimming pool is a great evil.

One of the arrested was one Frances P. Kinder.  Any relation to Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder?
