How to find users who stopped a windows service

How can I find users who stopped a service?
I have tried

[WinHostMon://service]

and

[WinEventLog://System]

But the first option lists the status of services and for second option log doesn't have a User field.

It's a good question. If you find out how can find which user have stopped a service please let me know.

Thanks
