Antioch leaders are speaking out after sideshows hit their city and other East Bay areas over this past weekend.
An estimated 200 people blocked the intersection of Lone Tree Way and Golf Course Road in Antioch early Sunday morning as cars spun donuts, and spectators shot off rounds of fireworks, authorities said. But Mayor Lamar Hernandez-Thorpe said that unlike in other cities, police quickly shut the sideshow down and dispersed the crowd – within 40 minutes or so.
Hernandez-Thorpe warned those involved in the illegal street activities in Antioch will be held accountable.
