people were displaced. They do know that no one was hurt, though. The final count is in for the Cinco de Mayo celebrations in the South Bay. The city of San Jose marked the day with two big parades and festivals, and in the wake of these celebrations, there were questions about how it went off. San Jose police answered those questions today. NBC Bay Area's Damian Trujillo explains. Several businesses along the parade route in East San Jose say they were impacted by the festivities, and San Jose police say they would support another celebration again next year. This weekend's celebrations drew thousands of people to San Jose to see the colors and the traditions of Cinco de Mayo, which were all extremely successful, extremely well attended family events. San Jose police say the official events were peaceful with no major incidents, but it was a different story in areas outside those festivities. We had officers who were getting bottles thrown at their vehicles and at them we had officers who had been assaulted. We had people driving drunk. We had one vehicle crashed into a patrol car and a double stabbing. Some of the numbers. Police made 17 felony arrests, impounded eight cars, seized six guns and issued 156 traffic tickets. We also had a lot of disruptive behavior that were not related to the event, and I want to make that very clear. Although they were in close proximity, they were not related to the event unlike last year when street and offramp shutdowns triggered a community uproar. Police say they haven't heard any complaints this year. They credit early outreach and a public education campaign with King Road closed off because of the parade. This year, the Lucky Seven supermarket had to rely on foot traffic. How did it go with sales? Si si llego bastante gente? Julia Soto says the store was packed with customers, but they did have to deal with a few shoplifters and inebriated customers. Another store in the strip mall said it decided to close instead. Si pero la mejor un poquito de mas control. Soto says she'd welcome another parade and festival again next year if there is a bit more security in place. Yeah. Estuvimos police say they look forward to being a part of next year's celebrations again, not just enforcing the law, but also celebrating
