OU wins; crowd celebrates in street ATHENS, OH (WOUB) -
Athens Police say there was too much celebrating on Court Street last night.

It was about 9-40 p-m.

Ohio University had just upset Georgetown in a tournament basketball game.

Police Chief Ric Mayer says "rowdy persons poured out of the bars...and began chanting and blocking the street."

A-P-D put out the call for more officers before moving in to disperse the crowd.

In the meantime, a street light was broken.

An hour later the crowd was gone.

Some of the extra officers were Ohio University Police and the sheriff's deputies. © Copyright 2012, WOUB
