00:00My world was turned upside down like a giant rock being dropped into like a still pond.
00:13If there's no one to call you to account for what you're doing, how far will you go?
00:22This city of Vancouver is on the edge of its seat.
00:27How did it happen?
00:28The Boston Bruins have won the Stanley Cup.
00:31Why?
00:32It was definitely regret.
00:34I wasn't part of that.
00:36You know, I got swept up in it.
00:40These folks are not hockey fans.
00:43They will not be able to hide.
00:45These Bulgarians defecated under reputation of one of Canada's first cities.
00:51All of this has been tweeted or fed live on, you name it.
00:55You name it, it is out there for police to use for the future.
00:58Rioters are now being hunted on Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr.
01:02And I had friends blowing up my phone saying, have you seen the news? Have you seen the internet?
01:06You should check your Facebook.
01:08People saying, how could you be part of that?
01:10It's absolutely disgraceful.
01:12We're asking people to keep whatever pictures they're taking on their phones because these people will be held accountable for this.
01:17Those who can be identified as participating in the riot should be sought out, named, charged and shamed.
