RICHMOND, Va. -- Earlier this year, campers set up 23 tents around the Richmond Coliseum for temporary shelter. Now, seven tents remain as the city prepares to tear down the massive, rundown downtown building.
âTheyâre putting a fence up and asking them to leave,â Traci Byrd-Eagles, a board member of Blessing Warriors RVA, said.
