Hundreds of UConn students took to the streets to celebrate the men's basketball win over San Diego State Monday night.

Some of them broke light poles and windows, turned a vehicle on its side and set fires set in trash bins and on wooden benches.

In all, 15 people were arrested and 16 people were transported to hospitals for evaluation, according to UConn.

UConn said the majority of those celebrating the Husky victory last night did so safely and responsibly, but “a small number chose to risk their safety and that of others by vandalizing or destroying property after the game.”

UConn Police will investigate the vandalism and other potential criminal offenses and the people responsible will face arrest and. If they are students, they could be sanctioned, which could include expulsion.
