Greenville street takeover nets 80+ arrests under SC’s new Roadway Safety Act
More than 80 people, including multiple juveniles, were taken into custody after Greenville County deputies intervened in a street takeover at Locust Hill and Fairview roads Saturday night. Deputies report illegal activity such as burnouts and road closures; 38 vehicles were impounded and 10 firearms seized. All arrestees were charged under South Carolina's Roadway Safety and Protection Act, with the investigation ongoing and potential additional charges. The act defines street takeovers, participants, organizers, and aides, and outlines penalties and vehicle seizure.
