Chu promises more info on hockey riot progress next week

Next week is the first anniversary of the Stanley Cup riot and Vancouver Police will update media on the investigation.

Chief Jim Chu says other than Court delays, the effort to identify and charge suspected rioters is going smoothly, “We are pretty happy with the progress. I know that it has taken some time but that is the way our justice system works. I will be available Tuesday and I will give a lot more information that day about our progress in the investigation.”

Chu says rioters who enter guilty pleas are taking accountability for their actions and also freeing up court time.

So far, 16 people have entered guilty pleas.
