Two masked groups drive recklessly through Chicago streets, Chicago IL

Traffic

Two vehicles, a black sedan and a white Camaro, each occupied by masked individuals, were observed driving recklessly through multiple stoplights starting near Central Park Ave and W Armitage Ave in Chicago. The vehicles traveled westbound on Armitage from Central Park toward Kostner, then southbound on Kostner, northbound on Pulaski, and east/west on North Avenue. The Camaro had a bent rear license plate, making identification difficult. The incident involved coordination among multiple units and a request for additional support. No personal names or contact details were disclosed.
