A couple visiting Chicago were left confused and horrified by a Mad Max-style scene unfolding outside of their hotel window, as teen gangs continue to terrorize the city.
The pair, who were staying at the Hampton Inn near the South Loop, were woken up early on Sunday morning after youths gathered at an intersection and began drifting in circles.
As traffic backed up on either side of the intersection of Michigan Avenue and Cermak Road, a large group was seen crowding three cars spinning in the intersection.
There were several street takeovers the same night all over Chicago. This one was right at the intersection of Western and 71st. https://t.co/u1M9YnLD0d pic.twitter.com/B1ZMyDH9Il
