(KRON) — Two Bay Area sideshow promoters are accused of organizing an illegal event after a gathering attended by a popular internet personality and streamer, iShowSpeed, prosecutors said.
Alameda County District Attorney Ursula Jones Dickson identified the alleged promoters on Monday as Axel Cisnerosmentos and Aron Anaya. Prosecutors charged Cisnerosmentos and Anaya with organizing and facilitating a sideshow, as well as aiding and abetting a speed contest.
“Sideshows are not harmless gatherings,” Jones Dickson said. “These illegal events routinely cause vandalism, reckless driving, injuries, property damage, and pose significant threats to public safety. Individuals who organize, promote, and facilitate these activities will be held accountable.”
