Angry neighbors were forced to call the police about a “four day wedding ceremony” that turned their street into a “war zone”.
A number of expensive cars, including Porsches and Lamborghinis, lined the streets in Telford, Shropshire last weekend.
Locals were outraged after reports of loud music played and fireworks and colored smoke cannons set off until 3 a.m.
Pictures of the scene showed rows of around £ 150,000 worth of cars lining the streets and a large crowd of men in suits.
A resident said the group was celebrating a wedding that had previously been canceled due to coronavirus regulations.

It is said to have started on Friday, June 25th and will last until Monday evening.
A local neighborhood watch group in Arleston tweeted, “Absolutely angry that fireworks are still going off at this time of night.
“So many residents had to endure this in the last four nights, that’s not fair at all.
“Wedding or no wedding, this is not a good time to set off fireworks.”
On Twitter, a local wrote: “It was heard all over Telford so I’m not sure more than one place triggered it, but the ones on my street felt like a war zone.
“They did that on Friday too. A weekend full of wedding celebrations. It was quite irritating for us neighbors as we had music at 3am! ‘

Another resident wrote on Facebook: “An insane number of cars were parked on the sidelines, on paths, in the bus stop and directly on the street. A number of sports models also blocked the road.
“I reported it to the police at the request of one of the older guests. This was very worrying. The drivers struggled to get through and the affected guests seemed reluctant to move their cars. A man stuck in traffic was on his way to the hospital. ‘
West Mercia Police confirmed that reports of anti-social behavior related to the gathering were “taken seriously”.
Insp. Mike Phillips of the North Telford Safer Neighborhood Team said: “We received reports of unsocial behavior and dangerous driving in and around Arleston and Leegomery over the weekend.

“We recognize that those responsible have shown very little respect for their neighbors and the wider community. I want to reassure the public that all reports of unsocial behavior and dangerous driving are taken extremely seriously.
“Safer Neighborhood Team officials will be in touch with those who reported these incidents to us and we will be reviewing dashcam footage as part of the investigation.
“I want to thank the public for their continued support and encourage anyone with footage of the incident to submit it to us through the Operation Snap page on the West Mercia Police Department website. We will continue to work with local authorities to deal with criminals appropriately. ‘
