City of High Point Police Department issued the following announcement on Nov. 18.
Officers will be out in full force on Friday (Nov. 18, 2022), monitoring parking
lots and intersections for a “car-swinging” event. “Car-swinging” is when a large group of
vehicles meets in a parking lot or shuts down an intersection to do donuts and burnouts. These
events typically draw crowds of people.
“Car-swinging” disrupts businesses, customers and drivers, and it can be dangerous. People
who are caught trespassing or disrupting traffic could get a ticket, be arrested or have their
vehicle towed.
Business owners concerned about groups coming to their parking lots can fill out at “No
Trespassing” form at the High Point Police Department (1730 Westchester Drive). The form will
allow High Point officers to request unauthorized people to leave a property, arrest people
trespassing on the property, and issue citations or warrants against people trespassing on the
property.
The High Point Police Department remains committed to crime-fighting, community
engagement, training, and professional policing. We will continue to collaborate with our
community members and crime-fighting partners to promote a higher quality of life. Anyone
with information about violent crime or illegal activity is asked to contact Crime Stoppers of
High Point at 336-889-4000 or Download the P3 mobile app for IOS or Android.
