Three street takeovers in Orange County overnight show they're getting increasingly dangerous.
One of the sideshows happened at Valley View Street and Artesia Boulevard in Buena Park just before midnight. Video shows a silver vehicle with passengers hanging out its rear windows doing donuts in an intersection and sideswiping a bystander. He appeared to have gotten knocked out by the collision, but its unclear if he was taken to a hospital.
In neighboring Anaheim, vehicles did wild burnouts while the crowd set off fireworks and set a ring of flammable liquid on the ground on fire. Police say they were alerted to a crowd of about 80 people on Sunkist and Cerritos avenues at about 12:30 a.m. Friday, but when officers arrived at the scene, everyone scattered and no arrests were made.
About an hour later in Costa Mesa, at Red Hill Avenue and Kalmus Drive, another crowd gathered as vehicles burned rubber with people hanging out of open windows and waving flags.
