Anonymous tip of party, underage drinking leads to McAllen teen's arrest

MCALLEN, Texas (ValleyCentral) — A teenage girl was arrested over the weekend after police say she provided alcohol to minors at a party in McAllen.

Kamila Milian Figueroa, 17, was arrested Sunday after police received an anonymous report of minors drinking alcohol at a party on the 2700 block of South M St.

Officers arrived at the party shortly after midnight and reportedly found beer cans and bottles on the lawn.

Statements gathered at the scene indicated that Figueroa hosted the party with permission from a parent, who was not present at the time it was raided, according to a news release from the police department.

According to police, the parent permitted Figueroa to host a "limited gathering," but was not aware of any alcohol.

Figueroa was arraigned on Sunday on six counts of furnishing alcohol to a minor and issued a bond of $24,000.

Jail records show Figueroa was booked and released from Hidalgo County jail on Sunday.

One person, who was not identified by police, was also charged with providing a false name to investigating officers.

Police believe some people left the scene as the party was raided.

Other charges may be pending as the investigation continues.
