Eight college students were cited for possession of alcohol by a minor during a sting at Hula Hank’s on Crown Street on Thursday night, according to a press release by City Hall Spokeswoman Jessica Mayorga. None of the students who were cited attended Yale: Five attend Quinnipiac University and three attend Southern Connecticut State University, Mayorga said. The enforcement operation by the New Haven Police Department is part of an ongoing effort to eliminate underage drinking in the city, she said. Mike, a manager at Hula Hank’s, had no comment when reached by phone Friday night.
