Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers are investigating after some wild scenes on parts of Highway 401 in Mississauga early Saturday morning that included street racing, stunt driving and even fireworks being set off.
OPP officers first responded to calls about cars racing on the 401 at Mavis Road at around 2:10 a.m.
Citizens reported seeing a large group of vehicles blocking traffic and racing.
They fled before police arrived.
A little more than an hour later, at 3:20 a.m., officers again responded to numerous complaints, this time on Highway 401 at Islington Avenue where vehicles blocked the highway and were seen stunt driving while fireworks were set off.
Investigators tell CityNews several of the vehicles involved had their plates covered to avoid being identified.
Videos of the incidents have been spreading online.
An investigation is underway, but so far no suspect descriptions have been made available and there’s no reports of arrests.
