Connecticut State Police
(May 29, 2023) — A Statewide Tip Line and website have been established for “Street Takeovers” within Connecticut. Individuals can call 1-800-CALL-FBI and select the “Connecticut Street Takeovers” option, or visit fbi.gov/cttakeovertips to provide investigators with video/photos related to these events. All information may be submitted anonymously and will remain confidential.
If you come across a street racing area, stop, turn around and find an alternate route. Do not approach the individuals, and call 9-1-1 immediately. These groups are extremely dangerous. Perpetrators who violate the laws and cause these dangerous situations or those who are active participants will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. If you witness any crimes or have evidence that a crime is or was being committed, please contact your local law enforcement agency to hand over evidence to detectives. Parents should be aware that a majority of the spectators are high school teenagers and conversations should be had to discuss the inherent dangers and consequences of these activities.
