San Francisco Police Seizes Three Vehicles Involved in a Stunt Driving Event in the City 23-052

On April 15, 2023, at approximately 11:30 p.m., SFPD officers assigned to the Stunt Driving Response Unit (SDRU) responded to the area of Dolores and 16th Street for a report of numerous cars with a large number of spectators and participants. Our stunt driving response unit was activated and dispersed the group who fled onto city streets.

Investigators from the SFPD SDRU investigated and identified three vehicles involved in the stunt driving event. Investigators authored vehicle seizure orders for two Chevrolet Corvettes and a Ford Mustang, which were authorized by a judge commanding the seizure and impounding.  

On April 18, 2023, at approximately 4:00 p.m., San Francisco Police officers from Ingleside Station and members from the SFPD Traffic Company, served a seizure order for one of the Corvettes on the 300 block of Lisbon Street. Officers seized the vehicle and had it towed to the vehicle impound lot for a mandatory 30-day hold. 

On April 19, 2023, at approximately 7:00 p.m., San Francisco Police officers from Ingleside Station and members from the SFPD Traffic Company, located the other wanted Chevrolet Corvette in the Lakeview neighborhood.  Officers seized the vehicle and had it towed to the vehicle impound lot for a mandatory 30-day hold. 

The third vehicle involved, a Ford Mustang, was located and seized by San Mateo County Sheriffs, who had it towed for a mandatory 30-day hold.  

Photos of the seized vehicles are attached to this release.   

The SFPD works within the confines of our local laws and ordinances to ultimately arrest suspects and seize vehicles that are involved in these stunt driving incidents. At this time no arrests have been made, but our investigators are working to identify those involved. 

This remains an open investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call the SFPD Tip line at 1-415-575-4444 or Text a Tip to TIP411 and begin the text message with SFPD. You may remain anonymous.
