Illegal beer, soccer in packed Newark warehouse — twice in a weekend

NEWARK — Two Irvington women were arrested twice in one weekend for organizing back-to-back crowded events in a warehouse and illegally serving alcohol, city police said.

Rosa E. Mainato, 23, and Fanny Camas, 27, were charged with maintaining an unlicensed liquor establishment in both incidents.

An executive order issued by Gov. Phil Murphy limits general indoor gatherings to 10 people. Legal indoor gatherings such as wedding ceremonies, funerals, memorial services or religious and political activities cannot have more than 150.

The city of Newark also has a curfew requiring businesses deemed non-essential to close at 8 p.m. daily. Gatherings and events are limited to no more than 10 people.
