It was not-so-lucky seven for one particular group of people gathered in the parking lot of a Woodbridge plaza on April 12.

Police were alerted to a gathering of seven people at a plaza located at 9600 Islington Ave. at around 10:30 p.m. When the people refused a request to disperse, officers charged each with failing to abide by the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act.

Seven people, including six from Etobicoke and one from Bradford, each received tickets for $880.

One person was also charged with loitering.
