Original Toronto Star caption: In the Exuberance of V-E Day Halifax crowds did incalculable damage to property. They overturned and set fire to this police car which responded to a call to deal with an attack on a street car. Several service personnel were recently sentenced to jail terms for their parts in the rioting. A brewery was looted of considerable stock; too; by crowds.
