South Philadelphia residents voice frustrations after car meet disrupts neighborhood

Philadelphia police said officers responded to the scene to disperse the crowd without any arrests.

People are going to die.""Car meets are disruptive, reckless, and often dangerous, which is why the police department has assembled dedicated teams of officers to monitor and address these events.""I just don't see it in my neighborhood. I don't see it," he said.
