BHPD Update to Last Weekend's Sideshow
BHPD would like to provide an update to the community related to last weekend’s “sideshow” incident.
BHPD Traffic Investigators have been working diligently reviewing CCTV footage and other digital evidence in an attempt to identity persons and vehicles involved in the incident. Through these efforts a license plate associated with one of the primary vehicles involved in the sideshow was identified.
California law prohibits this type of dangerous and reckless driving and allows police officers to obtain a warrant to seize the vehicles involved in this type of activity.
Once investigators identified the license plate of the involved vehicle, a warrant was drafted and granted to seize the vehicle. BHPD notified our law enforcement partners in the region to be on the lookout for the vehicle.
Last night, the vehicle was located by the California Highway Patrol in south Los Angeles. The driver of the vehicle was arrested by CHP for additional violations committed during their enforcement stop. The vehicle was impounded by BHPD officers. Under strict California law, which discourages this type of driving behavior, the vehicle will be impounded and stored for up to 30 days.
BHPD Traffic Investigators will continue to investigate this case and seek criminal charges for the crimes that occurred in Beverly Hills last weekend.
BHPD sends a big thank you to our partners at the CHP!
