More than 80 people were arrested and 45 vehicles were impounded in a street racing bust in South Fulton, police announced Sunday.
South Fulton worked with the Georgia Department of Public Safety, the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office and the Atlanta Police Department to make the arrests, according to a report posted on Facebook.
Police said five guns and 32 grams of marijuana were also seized.
Police didn’t say when the arrests occurred, and the names of the suspects and the charges they face have not been released.
The Atlanta Police Department has been fighting street racing for much of the past year, but it has also spread into the suburbs. Last month, Clayton County arrested dozens of people in a street racing bust. Also last month, Gwinnett police said that county has also seen an uptick in racing. The department said it conducted traffic stops for street racing on more than 300 drivers during a recent weekend.
