Horrified tourists visiting Chicago confronted by nightmarish Mad Max scene unfolding outside window of their Hampton Inn hotel room
A couple visiting
Chicago were left confused and horrified by a Mad Max-style scene unfolding outside of their hotel window, as teen gangs continue to terrorize the city.
The pair, who were staying at the Hampton Inn near the South Loop, were woken up early on Sunday morning after youths gathered at an intersection and began drifting in circles.
As traffic backed up on either side of the intersection of
Michigan Avenue and Cermak Road, a large group was seen crowding three cars spinning in the intersection.
Footage posted to
X showed a few people standing in the middle of the circling cars as the screeching of tires and rumbling of their engines echoed down the streets.

Footage of an unruly scene of teens drifting in the streets of Chicago was captured by an unsuspecting couple visiting the city who were awoken by the chaos
The lawless scene was not an unusual occasion in Chicago as the Democratic-run city continues to struggle to control 'large gatherings' of teens.
Reports of vandalism, property damage, noise complaints and chaotic crowds have plagued the city for years and appear reminiscent of the post-apocalyptic Mad Max franchise- where governments fell apart and violent gangs rule the roads.
An unsuspecting couple visiting Chicago were startled awake by a group of teens taking over the streets, as the Democratic city continues to struggle with 'large gatherings.'
