The police spokesperson said one of the vehicles collided with a pedestrian who was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
“The vehicles were dispersed around 2.30am. Police are following lines of inquiry including reviewing CCTV security footage and have not ruled out further arrests or action.
“The reckless driving behaviour of a small group of individuals presents a danger to themselves and to other road users and we continue to monitor, investigate, and hold the alleged offenders to account,” he said
“Where we can, police will deploy staff to monitor areas where this activity is happening.”
The spokesman said it was important anyone concerned about illegal street racing behaviour contacted the police straight away with as much detail as possible – including number plates and descriptions of people and vehicles if it was safe to do so.
“If officers are not able to attend the area immediately, this detail is helpful for those follow-up inquiries. We welcome any information which may assist us with our inquiries, which can include CCTV or video. These inquiries can and do result in enforcement action.
“We understand it can be frustrating to be witness to this type of behaviour, however we ask members of the public do not get directly involved.”
Anyone who witnesses antisocial driving behaviour, call 111 immediately, or to report an incident after the fact by calling 105.
Information can also be provided anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
