Seven suspects are in custody for reportedly participating in street takeovers in Austin over the weekend that injured an officer. Vehicles blocked intersections and did doughnuts, people started fires and set off fireworks, and crowds threw rocks and bottles at police. At a news conference on Tuesday, Austin Police Chief Joseph Chacon said the injured officer is already out of the hospital. Chacon said San Antonio police gave them a tip on Friday night about possible street takeovers in Austin on Saturday, but it was too vague to be useful.
