00:00I've actually lived in Harold's all my life. I lived lower down when the Harold's riot years back was on and they was proper riots
00:08Not like a riot like last night
00:10So last night's riot didn't really frighten me because I lived two minutes away from the other Harold's riots
00:18I
00:19Don't know more policing could be around
00:23They there are law unto themselves a lot of the people the police was actually frightened they should have brought in the army earlier
00:30to deploy them
00:32That bus wouldn't have been caught on fire if the police didn't actually run from them
00:37So I could understand why they run from them
00:40For their own protection, but then they should have done something about it and brought in more forces from different areas
00:47even the army and
00:49Instead of just letting them think that they can do it because once I've got away with it once
00:54They'll I think I'll just riot continuously from minor little things and think it's okay to get away that that nothing I'll be done
01:00I only live two minutes up the road. So the police helicopter was flying all round from five o'clock onwards
01:08till gone 12
01:10It destructed me quite locks. I look after a child who's got autism. So he was scared of a helicopter
01:17Watched a lot of it live on
01:19Tick-tock my family and friends were concerned about me who doesn't live in the area
01:24So they kept from bringing me and checking if I was safe and sound and showing me the tick-tock live views
