More Arrests Made In Connection With Lakers Melee

LOS ANGELES (CBS) ― Police said a man was facing a possible burglary charge Wednesday for allegedly looting a gas station following the Los Angeles Lakers' NBA championship game victory on June 14.

Michael Rivas, 24, of Hawaiian Gardens, was arrested on Friday by investigators who used security video and social networking sites to identity him, the Los Angeles Police Department reported.

Rivas, who was allegedly photographed loading soft drinks into a car, was booked on suspicion of burglary, the LAPD reported.

Rivas, who was released Wednesday morning on $20,000 bail, is the 20th stemming from the riot.
