Channel 2 Gwinnett County Bureau Chief Tony Thomas was in Duluth, where an extensive camera network captured the stunt driving event earlier this year.

Police have released new video of hundreds of people gathered at the intersection of Buford Highway and Old Peachtree Road to watch as cars dragged by.

“There are a lot of street racers here. There are about a thousand people here,” the dispatch told police at one point. “There are like a thousand people here.”

“These drivers may not have realized what they were up against. The city of Duluth has 347 cameras spread throughout the area,” Sadowski said. “These, along with the tag readers, enabled officers to easily follow the path of the cars and identify some of the drivers.”
