St. Petersburg police are hoping a massive street racing bust over the weekend will serve as a wake-up call to people considering participating in any future illegal events. Assistant Police Chief Antonio Gilliam announced on Monday that 69 people were arrested in a street takeover around 10:45 p.m. Saturday at 1101 Roosevelt Blvd. North. That's located near the Interstate 275 interchange. According to Gilliam, officers responded in "our most aggressive manner to date" with assistance from the Pinellas Sheriff's Office, Pinellas Park Police and the Florida Highway Patrol. Law enforcement officers said they arrived to find dozens of people gathered in a parking lot between buildings watching drivers do doughnuts and burnouts in the inner circle.
