Sky News
This news reporter goes to interview what is described as 'teen gang members'. These four teenagers have been stealing from shops when the rioting has been happening. They are wearing hoodys and something over their faces as they dont want their identity to be shown on the TV. Before the reported talks to them the voiceover talks about gangs and people from different backgrounds who saw something they couldn't resist which is describing these teenagers.
The first teenager tells the reported he stole tracksuits and electronic stuff. The after he has spoke to the other three he goes back to the first teenager who tells him that he got a van and filled it up in different locations then when the van got full he dropped what he already had off and went back for more.
The second teenager who is only 16 years old with a child tells the reported how he has done it to provide for his family and get stuff for his son. He steals clothes and trainers for him self and steals clothes, nappies and powder which he describes as a whole johnson's set for his child.
One of the other teenagers tells the reporter that he stole TV's, plasma's, PS3's and laptops which he plans to sell onto other people and make at least 2,000 pounds from.
They tell us how they went to stores where they had applied for a job and never heard anything back so they say this is payback as they never got offered a job. The places they went to were Lewisham, Catford, Bromley and Clapham Junction.
Towards the end the reported asks these teenagers if they feel bad about the looting they have done but none of them say they do, one says that it just feels like a normal day to them and one of them makes a joke out of it and say 'it feels like christmas came early'.
Overall these teenagers show the younger generation in a bad way which makes people think this is what all youths are like when they aren't.
