The Los Angeles city attorney’s office has filed charges against 10 people for their role in the violence and vandalism following last week’s Lakers victory over the Boston Celtics in the NBA championship series.
Spokesman Frank Mateljan said Monday that a range of charges includes inciting a riot, unlawful assembly after being told to disperse, throwing flammable objects and assault. All the charges are misdemeanors. At least 42 people were arrested after Thursday’s victory over the Celtics in Game 7 of the title series.

A riot erupted in central Paris this evening following Algeria’s devastating loss to the United States in the World Cup, as 200 to 250 youths who had been watching the game on a giant screen at an inner-city stadium took to the streets. Shop windows were smashed and about 20 cars were incinerated or flipped over, among other incidents which spread to nearby neighborhoods. Police made several arrests around 8 p.m., and dispersed the crowds using tear gas.
