Authorities nab 3 after Houston parking lot 'takeover' mushrooms to 200 cars
Tire marks are seen on the feeder road at the site of a car meet held Sunday, where authorities said a street takeover happened and a crash resulted in the deaths of three people. The site was photographed Thursday, Feb. 25, 2021, in Houston.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office Traffic Crimes Unit responded to reports of a takeover at 7500 Bellaire Blvd,. He said these exhibitions can materialize in a matter of minutes, and quickly draw hundreds of spectators. The takeovers are becoming a widening problem across Texas, including in Austin, where multiple takeovers erupted last week around the same time, overwhelming law enforcement's ability to break them up quickly efficiently. Many times, the participants scatter in different directions and avoid arrest.
Takeovers typically entail drivers blocking off a road or parking lot using high-powered, customized cars to perform stunts, doughnuts and race in front of an audience. Video clips of these events can become instant sensations on social media, in which squealing cars can be seen doing smokey burnouts and doughnuts dangerously close to throngs of cheering fans.In total, three arrests were made Saturday night by authorities from the sheriff’s office and the Houston Police Department.
