No arrests were made at the parade, said Sgt. George Anthony, a police spokesman. That was in contrast to the violence and vandalism that erupted in Detroit and several suburbs early Friday in the hours after the Pistons captured the championship. The mayhem led to at least seven deaths and 141 arrests in Detroit alone.
