Eleven partying teenagers in Nanaimo are the latest to be fined 230 dollars each.

Tickets were issued for ignoring public health rules aimed at fighting COVID-19.

RCMP say officers saw a large group of youth late Saturday in the parking lot of the Dover Bay High School and asked them to break up the event.

When police went back a while later, there were even more vehicles and people in the parking lot who weren't social distancing or wearing masks.

Police say the youth were respectful, apologetic and understanding of why they were getting tickets.
