Police reported a dozen arrests in the early hours of Thursday as people took to the streets following the Los Angeles Dodgers' World Series win over the New York Yankees.
A bus was set on fire, stores were burglarized or vandalized, and fireworks were set off after the Dodgers won their eighth title on Wednesday with a Game 5 win in New York. Some people in the crowds threw objects at police officers, authorities said.

"Metro is disappointed and angered by the senseless act of vandalism on one of our buses following the Dodgers World Series Win [sic] earlier this evening," the transportation agency said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times.
