London, Ont. police turn to social media to find rioters

London, Ont. police expect to make more arrests after a mob of some 1,000 people torched a TV news van and pelted officers with bricks and beer bottles during a Saturday night riot.

Eleven people, seven of them Fanshawe College students, were arrested after a St. Patrick’s Day party in the city’s east end turned into what police are calling „the worst case of civil disobedience“ in London’s history.

Police said Sunday they are poring over videos, photos and witness accounts posted on social media to find more culprits.

Some of the rioters have bragged about their involvement on Facebook and Twitter. (more on m.ctv.ca)
