ROTHBURY — So far, the Oceana County Prosecutor’s Office has prepared 27 warrants containing 13 felony counts and 17 misdemeanor counts arising out of criminal offenses that occurred during the Electric Forest Festival.

The breakdown of criminal charges is the following:
Felonies:
– Three counts of possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance;

-Three counts of resisting/opposing/assaulting police (one resulting in
injury);

– Two counts of larceny;
– One count of malicious destruction of property;
