Summary
An 18-year-old driver, Rodrigo Rivera-Montano, sparked chaos on Hillsborough Avenue during a street takeover, weaving through traffic and doing donuts before fleeing from troopers in a Dodge Challenger. After a high-speed chase ending in a PIT maneuver, cops found a police scanner in his cup holder—proof he was tracking police moves. Now facing felony charges for fleeing and unlawful racing, Rivera-Montano’s stunt backfired spectacularly, as authorities scramble to contain the growing trend of dangerous street takeovers.
