Over the weekend, Anaheim police officers arrested a 20-year-old man who allegedly ran over two spectators at a street takeover a few days ago.

After his arrest on Sunday, the Anaheim Police Department booked Hassan Hamid Ali for felony hit-and-run and felony exhibition of speed. Investigators said the hit-and-run crash happened at the intersection of State College Boulevard and Orangewood Avenue at about 2 a.m. last Friday. Ali allegedly lost control of his black Dodger Charger while doing donuts during the early morning street takeover. He then allegedly crashed into two spectators before ditching the car with the young adults trapped underneath.

"It's just extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous behavior," Sgt. Jacob Gallacher said. "Vehicles being operated in such a reckless manner, such a dangerous manner. Burnouts, doing donuts in the middle of the intersection people encroaching on this. It's absolutely unsafe."
