May 16, 2023 - Fresno Police Department officials report on Mother’s Day arrest.

Flowers, brunch, dinner, maybe even a spa day….that’s how most of us spent Sunday with our moms. But not these two…

Members of the Street Racing Team conducted a traffic stop on two vehicles racing eastbound on Shaw Avenue from First Street. Shaw Avenue has a posted speed limit of 40 MPH and both vehicles were observed traveling in excess of 80 MPH as they traveled side by side, dangerously weaving around other vehicles occupying the roadway.

The drivers of the vehicles were contacted and found to be mother and son.  Both were issued citations for reckless driving and their vehicles were impounded for 30 days. 

If you are engaging in illegal street racing and/or sideshow activity we will impound your vehicle for 30 days. Fresno is not the place to commit these hazardous crimes.
