LONG BEACH, Calif. \u2014 California Highway Patrol officers made more than 21 arrests and impounded dozens of vehicles following a large street racing incident reported late last night on the southern portion of the 110 Freeway.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to CHP, dispatchers received multiple calls reporting a large group of vehicles racing at high speeds on the freeway. Several callers expressed concern over the dangerous activity and urged officers to intervene.<\/p>\n

CHP South Los Angeles Area officers located the group on the International Gateway Bridge in Long Beach, where enforcement action was taken. Officers conducted traffic stops, leading to numerous arrests and vehicle impounds.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the operation was part of ongoing efforts by CHP\u2019s Crime Watch (C-Watch) team to address reckless driving and street racing, which they described as a serious threat to public safety.<\/p>\n

Street racing is considered a maliciously reckless activity that endangers not only participants but also innocent motorists, CHP officials said. The investigation remains ongoing, and additional enforcement actions may follow.<\/p>\n
