La Lakers NBA Finals win causes riot: taxi cabs set on fire

The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Boston Celtics 83 to 79 in perhaps the most dramatic game in NBA Finals history. But even more dramatic was the after-game-seven celebration in LA, as riots broke out and taxi cabs were set on fire.

This video below, posted at CitizenTube.com, shows the scene just a reported two blocks from Staples Center where the NBA game was played:



According to The Associated Press, 38 people were arrested for "public intoxication, vandalism or inciting a riot."

Between that and the New York City rap riot, I wonder what's going on at times.
