Some in the celebrating crowd began to destroy businesses and city buses, along with targeting the present LAPD officers. One bus was heavily damaged and a small fire was started on one of its seats. Rioters smashed windows and covered the exterior with graffiti. 

LAPD used crowd-control munitions to disperse the rioters as they threw objects and fireworks at the officers.
