An east LA man was arrested after he was captured launching a firework at police on June 17 in the midst of Mexico fans celebrating their World Cup victory against Germany.
The video shows a man kneeling down and aiming the weapon straight ahead before running a few steps forward, bending down and firing at police officers ahead. This was filmed on Pacific Boulevard by Eddie at around 11 am and later shared to Twitter.
Elsewhere in east LA, home to a large population of Mexicans, festivities erupted all over town as fans donning sombreros, Mexican flags and green jerseys took to the streets to celebrate beating Germany 1-0.
