The streets of downtown Chicago descended into chaos on Wednesday evening as hordes of teens and juveniles flooded the streets in a flash-party organized on social media. 

Alderman Michele Smith, of Chicago's 43rd ward, said in a statement that about 400 individuals - mostly consisting of juveniles and young adults - took over the streets in the vicinity of North Avenue Beach.

'This promoted event was un-permitted by the City and the Park District,' Smith said in a statement on Thursday, 'Police received advance warning of the event and placed extensive resources at every entrance to the beach, including the pedestrian bridge.'

Footage from the night shows rowdy youths running through the streets of Chicago, dancing and even climbing on top of cars and public transit buses.
