Boston Cops on Bicycles Stop Red Sox Fans from Overturning Car

Last night, Boston Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-1, in Game 6 of the baseball World Series (never understood why they insist on that name, but that’s a different story) earning their third championship in the last 10 years.

Good for them, but as is usually the case with important sports events anywhere in the world (remember what happened in Vancouver in 2011?); with the help of plenty of alcohol, some fans turned into rioters overturning and running over cars and climbing traffic lights until the early morning hours of Thursday.

As pointed out in a Huffington Post report, there were nine arrests made in connection to the riots.

While some cars were…mauled and overturned, we found at least one that was saved thanks to the efforts of some fine Boston police officers who did their job and chased away the rioters before they had the chance to turn over a Nissan sedan – and it was all captured on a video by Alan Wurman, which you can watch below the break.
