Three more people are facing charges in connection with September’s rowdy homecoming party near the University of Guelph.

Fifteen people have been arrested so far, and police continue to search for more suspects.

The three new accused have been identified as men from York Region and Hamilton. They each face two counts of assault causing bodily harm and mischief under $5,000.

Twelve people arrested last week each face charges of assault with a weapon, causing a disturbance and two counts of mischief. One man faces an additional charge of assaulting a police officer with a weapon.

The Sept. 26 party drew up to 15,000 people and resulted in roughly $91,000 in policing costs, a report presented to the Guelph Police Service Board last month showed.

Video from the event showed partygoers throwing objects into large crowds, while students described glass bottles, metal water bottles, sticks and other debris being hurled through the air.

Some students told Global News they chose to leave when the situation escalated.

Police were out in full force during the gathering and eventually deployed tactical officers to help restore order.

Emergency responders treated multiple people for injuries, including cuts and lacerations, and responded to several intoxication-related medical calls.
