SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (KGO) -- Seven people were issued $1,000 tickets in Santa Cruz for allegedly violating California's shelter-in-place order.

The police chief in Santa Cruz said the seven individuals came to the city from Fremont.

A photo from Chief Andrew Mills shows the alleged violators outside of a 7-Eleven store in Santa Cruz, where he said they were buying drinks.

"If you are not from Santa Cruz and you put our community at risk, you will get a ticket," he said on Twitter.

This instance in Santa Cruz is not the first case of a shelter-in-place violation in the Bay Area.

In San Jose last month, 56 businesses were cited for violations -- including gyms, hair salons and restaurants.

San Jose police said at the time that they were taking more of an educational approach to the violations.
