Written by Nearly 90 people were arrested after dozens of sports cars were towed from the Los Angeles River in the Cypress Park neighborhood on Sunday evening. LAPD officers said that they, along with personnel from other law enforcement agencies, swarmed the area at around 6 p.m. upon learning of the gathering. Aerial footage from around 7:20 p.m. showed a large gathering of vehicles in the riverbed near San Fernando Road. Other vehicles were seen being driven from the riverbed in a single-file line, where some were loaded onto tow trucks. CBS LA Drivers who had gathered in the area told CBS LA that they were there for a car meetup, and that just over 100 vehicles were there when LAPD officers unexpectedly arrived to tell them they were trespassing.
“There’s a trespassing sign that’s really small, you can’t read it,” said Alexander Pimienta, one of the many drivers who were in attendance at the gathering. “We weren’t doing anything illegal, we weren’t doing anything stupid. … They towed my motorcycle, they’re towing trucks, they’re towing over 50 cars.” Other video from the scene showed officers handing out what appeared to be citations or tickets, while some of the drivers were put in handcuffs. On Tuesday, LAPD officials told CBS LA that two people were arrested for felonies while 84 others were arrested for misdemeanors. They had 72 cars impounded on Sunday.
