For two nights in a row this weekend police in Vancouver cleared away crowds of people gathered at the English Bay beach.
Sergeant Steve Addison says there was at least one fight and two arrests on Friday, while an RCMP helicopter and boat were brought in to light up the beach and push people to go home.
He says tens of thousands of people flocked to the beach on Saturday and while most left when police told them to after 10 p-m, some did not.
Addison says at one point, people threw bottles at officers, though there were no arrests Saturday night.
