EL PASO, TX - El Paso County Sheriff's Office Urges the Public to Report "Takeovers" and "Sideshows" to Non-Emergency Number. El Paso, TX, January 17, 2024 – The El Paso County Sheriff's Office is urging members of the public to report any instances of "takeovers" and "sideshows" to the Sheriff's Office non-emergency number at 915-832-4408. These illegal and dangerous activities threaten public safety and will not be tolerated in our community. "Takeovers," also called "sideshows," involve the reckless and unlawful blocking off intersections, speeding, and performing stunts such as drifting donuts and ghost riding. Ghost riding, in particular, consists of a driver exiting a moving vehicle to dance or perform near or on the car before re-entering to take over control, putting themselves and others at serious risk of injury or worse. The El Paso County Sheriff's Office is committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all residents and visitors to our community. By promptly reporting any incidents of takeovers or sideshows to our non-emergency number, community members can play a vital role in helping law enforcement take action to address these dangerous activities. Sheriff's Office Patrol Commander Ryan Urrutia stated, "The safety of our community is our top priority, and we will not tolerate illegal and reckless behavior on our streets. We urge anyone who witnesses or has information about takeovers or sideshows to contact our non-emergency number immediately. Your cooperation is essential to keep our roads safe for everyone." The El Paso County Sheriff's Office is committed to thoroughly investigating reports of takeovers and sideshows and taking appropriate enforcement action to hold those responsible accountable for their actions. The cooperation and support of the public are invaluable in these efforts. For emergencies or immediate threats to public safety, individuals should always dial 911. However, the Sheriff's Office encourages the public to call 915-832-4408 to report non-emergency incidents related to takeovers or sideshows. The El Paso County Sheriff's Office thanks the community for their cooperation and assistance in helping to maintain the safety and security of our streets and neighborhoods.
