LOS ANGELES (AP) — Rowdy crowds took to the streets in Los Angeles after the Dodgers won the World Series, setting a bus on fire, breaking into stores and setting off firecrackers. Los Angeles Police spokesperson Officer Drake Madison says there were some “unruly, and at times violent and hostile celebrations” with several acts of vandalism, including the burning of a Metropolitan Transit Authority bus. Madison says 12 people were arrested. Video showed people throwing objects at police as sirens blared and officers told them to leave the area after the Dodgers defeated the Yankees in Game 5 in New York. Other video showed revelers on top of a bus waving a Dodgers banner and others leaving a boarded-up store with sneakers.
