CHICAGO (CBS) -- A third night of celebrations took over Chicago's Loop Saturday night as hundreds of people poured into downtown to celebrate Mexican Independence Day. 

The party created a giant gridlock. 

One of CBS 2's producers said it took her more than three hours to make it out of downtown Saturday night. 

Now authorities are betting that celebrations have come to an end. Police say they are not planning any road closures Sunday night.

However, that could change.
