An illegal street racing event led to a mass shooting on Sunday morning as hundreds of Seattle-area delinquents violently abuse the state's police reform policies, which prevent officers from conducting vehicle pursuits.

According to the Renton Police Department, five people were shot near the intersection of West Valley Highway and South 180th Street in Kent, Washington around 1:15 am Sunday morning.

Upon arrival, responding officers found hundreds of illegal street racers and spectators standing in the intersection and located five men with gunshot wounds who were then transferred to local hospitals in unknown conditions, police said.

The incident was captured on video and posted to the Instagram account Seattle Submissions, which shows hundreds of delinquents running to safety as shots poured out in the background at the Kent Speedway.
