Homeless residents of Manchester, New Hampshire have been delivered yet another eviction notice this time at the encampment behind Firestone Auto Care on Elm Street. Roughly 35 to 50 people had been living there, some for as long as a year.
This will be the third massive sweep in just five months, following the November eviction at Hillsborough Superior Court North, where more than 50 people were violently removed by State Police. About 20 people were hastily evicted from the the Amoskeag Bridge in February following a fire at the campsite.
“We are continuously seeing folks being pushed out from place to place,” said Alice, a local volunteer with New Hampshire Mutual Aid Relief Fund. “But you can’t just push out a group of people and ignore that they exist. They will exist, either that or they die. There’s only so many places left for them to go.”
