Add The New York Post on Google A rowdy street takeover turned threw three Long Island towns into chaos on Saturday as 200 obnoxious ATV and motorbike-riding goons pulled boneheaded stunts and clashed with cops, officials said.
The mayhem that unfolded through main thoroughfares and residential streets sparked a flurry of 911 calls and ended with three arrests and at least 10 vehicles impounded in Hauppauge, Brentwood and Bay Shore, Suffolk County police said.
Video obtained by The Post shows hordes of selfie-obsessed bozos hogging both lanes of of traffic on Route 347 in Hauppauge — with many of the reckless posse wearing masks, bandanas and sunglasses to conceal their identities.
The riders pulled death-defying wheelies and loudly sped down residential streets while their pals filmed them in what may have been a social media stunt, the clips show.
There were so many ATVs and bikes that the amateur stunts were unfolding mere inches away from each other, with some of the dimwits nearly falling over or crashing into each other, according to the footage.
Police said after motorists and residents flooded 911 with complaints, officers broke up the meetup in Hauppauge and arrested Ava Mongiello, 23, and Jahkil Arroyo, 29, while impounding several bikes.
But a bunch of the gang regrouped near Motor Parkway in Brentwood then barreled toward Bay Shore, cops said.
Cops then caught up with the riders again around 6:30 p.m. in Bay Shore, after two ATVs broke down, but their riders took off running — resulting in police tackling Shamir Solomon, 22, to the ground, cops said. Officials said he was carrying a loaded gun..
Mongiello and Arroyo were both charged with reckless driving, reckless endangerment and unlawfully fleeing a police officer. They issued desk appearance tickets and let go, police said.
Solomon was hit with charges of criminal possession of a weapon, unlawful speed contest and reckless driving — which could land him in prison for up to 15 years if convicted on the gun charge.
Solomon was held overnight and was arraigned in Central Islip on Sunday, when he pleaded not guilty and was released on $10,000 bail, according to the New York State court database.
