On Tuesday, Philadelphia police said they recovered one of the vehicles believed to be involved in the chaos.
A white Dodge Charger with a black hood and front paneling was recovered by local officers.
Authorities are still searching for a black Dodge Charger that was also involved.
A bill designed to crack down on this type of behavior has already passed Philadelphia City Council and is now awaiting Mayor Jim Kenney's signature.
Councilman Mark Squilla says the bill would levy a $2,000 fine on anyone taking part in these types of gatherings, and their vehicles might be confiscated as well.

"We have to start setting that example so that they will pass the word amongst themselves that if you're going to do this in Philly, you've got to be careful because they just might take your vehicle, and then also pay a large fine," said Squilla.
On Tuesday, police released images of some of the individuals being sought in connection with the incident.
Anyone with information is asked to call 215-686-TIPS.
