OPD said in a statement in part, "On Sunday, more than 100 OPD officers worked alongside regional partners to safely coordinate arrests and vehicle seizures." 

This recent slew of arrests is not the first time the city has had to deal with illegal takeovers.

San Francisco Police Chief Derek Luth said during the news conference that the takeovers have become a regional problem.

He said his agency, alongside California Highway Patrol, seized 85 bikes when bikers tried to take over the bridge back in March.

Additionally, last year SFPD seized more than 140 vehicles in relation to takeovers.

"There are going to be more arrests. If you made it away yesterday [Sunday] just expect a knock at your door, and if it warrants and it's legally just, you'll be arrested as well," Beere said.
