Cell phone video shows dozens of people on the sidelines of a street race in Richmond Sunday night.

RICHMOND, Texas -- The Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office is warning drivers participating in illegal street racing after a cell phone video shows dozens of people on the sidelines of a street race in Richmond on Sunday night.

"It's a crime of opportunity like most crimes are. They find the area, they have scouts that go out, looking for places to do it. Then they call them and they all rush to that area," Sheriff Eric Fagan said. Fagan said with people living nearby in the Aliana neighborhood, it was a conscious decision he agrees with.

Events like this can have deadly consequences. Three months ago in Harris County, Houston police busted a street takeover on Kempwood Drive, where drivers could be seen performing dangerous stunts in their trucks and cars. They said Damian West allegedly fled from the scene, hit multiple vehicles, and killed one of the innocent people inside.
