According to a Creston Police report, at approximately 8:30 p.m. March 19, officers responded to an underage drinking party at LaMasters’ residence. Seven juveniles under the age of 18 were located in the home, none of which resided there or were related to LaMasters. All of the juveniles consented to taking a PBT, four of the seven produced a BrAC result over .000%, including a 13-year-old female who had a result of .226%.

Several of the juveniles said LaMasters provided them with the alcohol and he had bought two bottles of Hawkeye Vodka specifically for them.
