burning buses and throwing objects at the police to celebrate the victory

A Los Angeles all hell broke loose during the celebrations for the success in the final of the Dodgers in MLB (the professional baseball league) in game 5 at home New York Yankees. Clashes that have brought the news back into the news United States the debate on what violent happens (or risks happening) after the victories of local teams in the various professional championships (in addition to baseball, also basketball, football and hockey).

As mentioned, all hell broke loose at the end of we are 5. During the street party, the situation degenerated in an unexpected way. Dodgers supporters even set fire to a bus and numerous objects were thrown at riot police in the city centre, while some shops were looted before the police managed to restore calm. In the end they were 12 people arrested. California had already ended up at the center of controversy for having attitudes (and laws) that were far too “permissive” on episodes of this kind. In fact, law enforcement is not helped by the decriminalization of all thefts under $900 in value. To most people it seemed like an incentive to crime. Like this time: a party transformed into violence. And there was a lot of fear among the inhabitants of Los Angeles.
