The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) issued several dispersal orders and an unlawful assembly after the LA Rams took home a triumphant win in the Super Bowl LVI on Feb. 13, as "large, violent and destructive" crowds became uncontrollable in the heart of downtown, according to the LAPD.

"There are a group of individuals that have refused to leave since the first dispersal orders were given," LAPD spokeswoman Meghan Aguilar told The Epoch Times at approximately 11:25 p.m.

"At this time we're just trying to disperse the crowd and arrest anyone that committed criminal acts tonight."

LAPD first issued a dispersal order asking everyone to leave the downtown LA area around 9 p.m. after a faction of individuals violently took to the streets, jumping on cars and unconfirmed reports of businesses being broken into via videos uploaded on social media.
