RANDOLPH — About 100 people showed up to a Randolph intersection on a Sunday night last October to do donuts, light fireworks, and swarm a police cruiser. They came from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine, and one guy drove up from the Bronx.
The street takeover happened on the night of October 5, 2025 at the intersection of North Main and Oak streets. Vehicles performed drifting and donuts in the middle of the road while spectators blocked traffic, recorded the whole thing for social media, and — when a Randolph police cruiser showed up — swarmed it, struck it, and set off fireworks around it.
The kind of thing you'd watch on Instagram and think, "someone's getting arrested for this." It just took a while.

Instagram gave them away

Detectives spent months piecing together dashcam footage, business surveillance video, and social media posts. Then they got search warrants for Instagram accounts — and that's where the organizers really did themselves in.
Messages recovered showed participants coordinating locations, planning routes, and encouraging each other to obstruct police if they showed up. Which they did. And which they did.

The 17

The charges range from conspiracy to disorderly conduct to negligent operation of a motor vehicle. All 17 face at least a conspiracy charge. Here's who they are and where they came from:
