A viral TikTok party in Alki Beach in Seattle, Washington was shut down by "hundreds" of police officers after it descended into chaos, local broadcaster King5 reported.

Police made two arrests after "multiple fights" broke out, the Seattle Police Department said.

Roads leading to the park were closed after reports of robberies and fires, the police added.

Videos from the event also show people dancing on the roofs of police cars.

"We just watched as a woman did a striptease on top of a police cruiser and was forced away," Kiro 7 reporter Ryan Simms said.

Police officers used loudspeakers to disperse the crowds and to urge people to leave the park.

The event appears to have been organized by teenagers on TikTok. User @kidsteez_ started advertising a "Washington Kickback" on Tuesday.

Several of the video invites posted by @kidsteez_ collectively received over 400,000 views.
