Roughly 250 cars chased out of Vallejo during sideshow busts: Police

(KRON) — Authorities broke up multiple sideshows involving roughly 250 cars around Vallejo Saturday night.

The Vallejo Police Department, the California Highway Patrol, and the Solano County Sheriff’s Office teamed up to stop the car rallies around 11:15 p.m. By 12:40 a.m., the sideshows, which were held by “unexpected out-of-town visitors,” Vallejo PD said, were pushed out of the city.

Seven cars were towed, six people were fined and one person was arrested during the operation. The person was arrested for “interfering with officers performing their duties,” Vallejo PD said.

The people who were cited or arrested were from multiple cities, including Hayward, West Sacramento, Winters, Oakland and Fairfield, Vallejo PD said.

“Vallejo is not a place for this type of activity,” Vallejo PD said. “Vallejo PD will continue to work with allied agencies to prevent sideshows, hold participants accountable, and keep our streets safe.”
