⬛ SIRENS/NATIONAL BLOTTER

▀ Smart Car Clowns Sideshow (Kansas City, MO)

A SMART CAR decided to join monster donut-making marauders who had tore up a roadway with burnt rubber streaks.

A silver car did the honors to tattoo the asphalt. Only to be followed by a white, silent tiny car that likely couldn’t scratch a sticker.

The cops weren’t amused.

KCPD: Reminder going into the weekend: street racing is illegal!

▀ Wild Bunch Wrangled (Tampa, FL)

A BIKE POSSE was tracked down after revving around town and swarming intersections.

Back on the evening of Aug. 13 cops on the ground and in the sky tracked down the the road warriors manning motorcycles, scooters… and the two-wheeling mime equivalent: e-bikes?! allegedly trying “to take over our streets”.

TPD: Our eyes in the sky and boots on the ground worked together to track them down. You can try to run. You can try to hide. But we’ll be right behind you - and above you – making sure our roadways are safe for everyone.
