- One Twitter user became the target of Canuck fans' anger after Wednesday night's Justin Bieber concert at Rogers Arena. Fan graffiti dedicated to Bieber was discovered outside the arena on a concrete wall that memorializes late Canuck Rick Rypien.
The story began to unfold on Wednesday morning, when a user going by the name Simran Mann tweeted her excitement about the Bieber concert shortly after 6:30 a.m. 
justin bieber concert tonight with @taranmann3456 @RevinaSahota @jassysumal1 && #sonia #myfavs #loveeyouguys #cantwait- A little more than 12 hours later, the graffiti on Rypien's wall was discovered and the angry tweets began. (WARNING: SOME FOUL LANGUAGE)
Hey @justinbieber, I hope you know that your brainless fans destroyed Rick Rypien's memorial wall @ RogersArena. Have a fantastic night.- A photo of the offending graffiti was posted.
@VanCanucks I hope you guys do something about this on the Rick Rypien Memorial Wall. #RYP37 http://pic.twitter.com/wkZmqtMW
@SIMRAN_MANN_ I'm not sure if you were the one but if so pls god go fix what you wrote on the rick rypien wall...go paint it grey or smtn- And then Twitter users began fingering the Justin Bieber fan who had tweeted in the morning...
@SIMRAN_MANN_ HOW DARE YOU VANDALIZE THE RICK RYPIEN MEMORIAL?! Just a warning that a fair bit of hate is coming your way.
This is gonna happen to @SIMRAN_MANN_ when she comes home tonight after fucking up Rypiens memorial #dumbass http://pic.twitter.com/CLa8AAeN- The abuse became threatening. This wasn't the worst of it. Some was unprintable here.
@SIMRAN_MANN_ You better wash that stupid writing of yours before someone kicks your ass
@Simran_Mann_ Why the f*ck would you ruin Rypien's memorial? This is why people hate you. #DumbassBelieber
@SIMRAN_MANN_ real irresponsible & selfish of you to vandalize the Rypien memorial put together by fans by marking your name over it. Dumb.
@simran_mann_ have a nice time reading through your mentions. Pretty much all of Vancouver is furious with you.
Leave @SIMRAN_MANN_ alone. Telling her to die/kill herself/she should watch her back, how do those words justify this? She's a kid. #Canucks
