LOS ANGELES (AP) — Fans jubilant over the Dodgers' World Series win danced in the streets and set off fireworks across Los Angeles.

In some areas the celebrations were marred by vandalism and looting.

Police declared an unlawful assembly in a downtown neighborhood where windows were shattered and shops were looted.

Law enforcement says at least 18 people were arrested throughout Los Angeles County.

Near Dodger Stadium, motorists honked and cheered as part of an impromptu parade down Sunset Boulevard.

Sheriff's deputies moved through East Los Angeles trying to clear streets clogged with fans.
