Her car, a Dodge Challenger, was seized and towed by the Marlboro police.

One Philadelphia man is being held on $1.5 million bail after he nearly ran over several police officers and then hit another car, police said.

Assistant District Attorney Kimberly Esack said in a statement directed at the rallygoers that investigators were "using every resource at our disposal to ensure that you are held accountable for your reckless, dangerous behavior.”

Bizarre costumes at Philly street rally

Police said they also arrested a Pittsburgh man who attended the illegal meetup wearing a weird outfit. Investigators weren't sure what the costume was supposed to be, saying it was either a sun or a banana.
