Traffic came to a standstill as police tried to control the situation.


Omid Bedi, 30, and Equilla Ross, 39, were eventually arrested.


Police say Bedi was driving this ATV against traffic.


Among other things, he’s charged with reckless endangerment and criminal nuisance.

Several other riders in the group fled the scene by lifting their bikes over the median after police slowed down traffic to try to stop them.
