A 20-year-old man allegedly doing doughnuts with his car in Top Golf’s parking lot was arrested after fleeing from police responding to reports of reckless activity, authorities said.
El Paso Police Department officers responded to reports of a 2002 White Chevrolet Camaro driven by Tye Mora committing a “reckless activity” about 10 p.m. Friday, May 24, in the Top Golf parking lot at 365 Vin Rambla Drive in West El Paso, police officials said.
Mora of El Paso was allegedly doing doughnuts in the parking lot and “endangering several pedestrians that had gathered in the parking lot of Top Golf,” officials said.
