One East Bay mayor has a message for anyone planning a sideshow in his city Memorial Day weekend, 'You are going to be found and you are going to be held accountable.'

Chaos and mayhem in San Francisco after an early morning sideshow took over downtown streets creating a scary wake up call for hundreds of neighbors.

"Oh, they are horrible! I can hear them from my bedroom window. And I didn't realize they were this close," says Alishia Penn. Her family lives within walking distance of the intersection."It is so disheartening because this is the main artery of our community. We have a fire station right there. What if someone is having a medical emergency, and needs the fire station? They want to come out here act like total buffoons and hold the community hostage," says Penn.

Some cities like Pittsburg have put traffic measures in place to cut down on drivers doing donuts, such as permanent traffic cones to block the intersection. But the city is joining forces with Antioch, Brentwood and Oakley to crackdown on big-scale events over the holiday weekend.
