A TEENAGER who was so drunk that he needed physical protection was one of the five people held in Sydney's sobering up centre during its first night of operation.
Four officers and two nurses manned the centre from 9pm (AEST) on Friday until 6am in the morning.
During this time five men were brought in, including a 27-year-old who had failed to move on when ordered to by police in Kings Cross.
Two youths, aged 19 and 21, were also deemed to be in need of physical protection due to their level of intoxication.
Each of the five detainees were issued with a cost recovery notice of $200 after they were released on Saturday morning.
Assistant Commissioner Mark Murdoch warned revellers that if they were found drunk and unruly in the CBD they'd be taken to the centre.
"It is still a cause for concern that despite the many warnings given in the lead up to last night we still had at least five young men who came to police notice due to intoxication," he said.
Mr Murdoch said the five men now had time to reflect on their actions.
"And hopefully the $200 cost recovery penalty will go some way towards reminding them to act responsibly in the future," he added.
The detainees were constantly monitored during their detention and provided with food, tea and coffee.
