A TEENAGE girl accused of wrecking a police car in the riots is a London Olympics ambassador.
Chelsea Ives, 18, was arrested after her parents allegedly saw her on TV during the mayhem in Enfield and called police.
Mum Adrienne, 43, said: "I have no regrets. I love my daughter but she was brought up to know right from wrong."
Chelsea is said to have hurled a rock through a shop window while rioting - then yelled excitedly to a friend: "This is the best day ever."
She was behind bars last night after parents Adrienne and Roger turned her in when they allegedly saw her on TV attacking a police car.

"My children have always been taught right from wrong. We were not being brave, it's what any right-thinking person would have done."
