18 Arrested After Street Takeover in Atlanta, GA

 The New York Post reports that "[a] massive swarm of [over 200]young street racers took over an Atlanta intersection in the middle of the night Sunday, where they did donuts, drifted and raced one another in the wild melee, dramatic footage shows." Per the article, "[e]ighteen alleged street racers were taken into custody and charged with multiple traffic violations. The oldest arrested was 25 and the youngest was 15, police said." An photo accompanying the article shows 9 or 10 of the arrestees and they all appear to be Hispanic.

  1. Did they try putting a rainbow on the crosswalks? Then they could pick the comrades up for hate crimes.

  2. These "street takeovers" are a regular thing, but AFAIK they rarely make the news outside of the local area. A little over a month ago there was one incident where 39 people were arrested and 65 vehicles were impounded. TBH no one really seems to care that much because the locations are in undesirable parts of town and late at night when honest, hard working tax paying people are asleep at home.

    1. P.S. I meant to mention that it's my town of Cincinnati where this is occurring.

    4. Fortunately, I never had to make route deliveries there back in the 90s. OTR was bad enough.

  3. The price isn't high enough to stop the behavior.
