Gov. Maura Healey on Thursday detailed efforts to prevent "street takeovers" in Massachusetts through a combination of citations, arrests and millions of dollars in traffic safety grants.

Earlier this month, the Boston Police Department said a crowd of more than 100 people blocked traffic during a meetup in the area of Tremont Street and Mass. Ave. They allegedly attacked police cruisers with fireworks, cones, poles and other objects, torching one cruiser.

Two teenagers from Rhode Island, 18-year-old Julian Bowers and 19-year-old William Cantwell, were the only people arrested. They pleaded not guilty and were released on bail in the amount of $500 for Bowers and $1,000 for Cantwell.
