Around 11:39 on Oct. 6, the Vallejo Police Department responded to multiple reports of a sideshow at the intersection of Tennessee Street and Sacramento Street in Vallejo. About 100 people were watching vehicles perform donuts and block traffic, according to VPD.
A California Highway Patrol air unit flew over the scene and reportedly observed one of the sideshow participants steal a street sign. Police said the suspect put the stolen sign inside a stolen 2016 Hyundai Elantra and left the area. The CHP air unit guided VPD to the Elantra’s location where they were led on a pursuit. For public safety reasons, police said the chase was called off.
