The two men's vehicles were "used to perform dangerous burnouts in the roadway," police said.

Their vehicles, a 2019 Dodge Charger a 1999 BMW 328, were also towed, according to a news release. Crowd takes over Salem street after protest, police say Police said in a news release on Feb. 2 the intersection in north Salem was taken over around 8:30 p.m. by a crowd of 50 people and drivers doing 'burnouts and dangerously drifting and spinning in the roadway.' The intersection was closed from about 8:45 p.m. to 11 p.m., police said. No injuries were reported. Hundreds of people had rallied at noon in the area on Saturday for Mexican immigrants as part of a national protest of President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration. People waved Mexican flags and held signs that read, "Immigrants Make America Great," "No Human Is Illegal On Stolen Land" and "Families Belong Together." By 2 p.m. the group included 300 people and 'remained relatively peaceful' with some traffic congestion, police said. Police said callers reported people throwing 'objects' and hitting cars as the event continued. Around 7 p.m., police said they received reports of people 'standing in the crosswalk not allowing traffic to continue, fireworks being ignited, and vehicles driving recklessly.' Police said they deployed more resources to respond, with officers being called in from home and requesting outside agency help. Police said the intersection was closed shortly after people began doing burnouts and standing in the street. North and southbound Lancaster Drive was closed between D Street and Sunnyview Road, police said, and east and westbound Market Street were closed between Fisher Road and Tierra Drive. Police said Cherriots buses were rerouted and Oregon State Police temporarily closed the Market Street off-ramp. Police said a group had surrounded a vehicle on Lancaster Drive, blocking all northbound traffic, as the Mobile Response Team arrived. Officers cleared the area to let the vehicle continue, and police said 'protestors threw water bottles and cans of beer at Salem Police vehicles." Salem Police chief says 'unruly' protest strained patrol staffing Police arrested five people, all of Salem, ages 18, 19, 30, 34 and 34, on charges that included reckless driving and disorderly conduct. One of the 34-year-olds also faces an additional charge of unlawful possession of a firearm, police said. Salem Police Chief Trevor Womack called the protest 'unruly' and said it and other emergency calls strained patrol staffing and required assistance from partner agencies. Salem Police said the department received traffic control assistance from Oregon State Police and Keizer Police handled calls in the city while patrol, MRT and detectives with the Strategic Investigations Unit responded to the street takeover.
