Drag Racers Arrested in Gates

Gates Police and New York State Police last night ran a special anti-drag racing detail to curb groups of drivers who've been bringing fast cars out on Sunday nights and racing them on the West Side of Monroe County.

Cars were spotted leaving the Charlotte Beach area about 9:30 p.m. headed for Greece, then the city, where they raced down Mt. Read Boulevard. Then they headed for Elmgrove Road in Gates near the Tech Park.

As the cars lined up to race, police descended on them. Two people were arrested for racing and had their cars towed. The other 80-odd drivers fled.
