Police in Plymouth Township, Pennsylvania, are searching for drivers seen on camera doing donuts in a major intersection at a car meetup near the township border with Conshohocken.

The event described by police as a "car rally/street takeover" happened just after 8 p.m. Sunday, June 15, at Ridge Pike and North Lane.

Surveillance video shows four vehicles performing "donut" tricks and leaving black marks on the road.

There were also fireworks being set off in the intersection and an estimated 50 to 100 people gathered and watched, police said.

The vehicles fled the area when officers arrived at the scene after receiving several calls about street racing in the intersection.

Police shared images of multiple four-door sedans seen in the intersection with people hanging out of the windows or sunroof.

Car meetups lead to viral videos across Philly region

Over the past few summers, car meetups in Philadelphia have been seen in viral videos, including one that garnered national attention ahead of Election Day.

The meets typically take place on weekends and in Philadelphia, as many as 1,000 spectators might show up to see the action.

Officers have used social media posts advertising the events and showing them afterward to arrest multiple people who have organized meetups, including one known as "Project X" that shut down the intersection at Spring Garden Street and Delaware Avenue.
