Description
Ten people, including two 17-year-olds, face charges for street racing in a Riverview neighborhood.
The Florida Highway Patrol made the arrests over the Labor Day weekend.
The community, including a family still traumatized by what happened, hopes the arrests send a message to others to stay out of their neighborhood.
You can still see some of the residual damage in front of Darrian Mitchell’s home, where a chunk of stucco was knocked away at the end of a pursuit.
Mitchell’s family says it was frightening.
The stop in front of his home was one of several the Florida Highway Patrol made after a street racing takeover incident along Pradera Reserve Boulevard.
“They were screaming at the guy,” Mitchell recalled. “He was literally right there in front of the house. And his car was in our yard.”
The entire neighborhood still shows scars from the incident.
There are tire marks on the road, on the grass, and sidewalks. And that chunk of plaster taken out of Mitchell's home where one of the cars was brought to a stop.
