Group blocks traffic, police investigating 'drift racing' on I-285 near airport

CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. - The Clayton County Police Department says it is aware a group of people blocked traffic to perform dangerous stunts in a tunnel on Interstate 285 West near Riverdale Road and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

It happened around midnight Sunday. 

Officers say they received reports about traffic being backed up. As officers arrived on the scene they say those involved were driving away.

Video of the activity has spread on social media. It shows a Dodge Charger spinning in circles.
