The Los Angeles Police Department told Fox News it was unaware of the incident.
In another video, a man is seen being taken into custody by police officers on the beach before he is put onto a stretcher. The user who posted the footage said it occurred after a random attack near the boardwalk. The LAPD did not respond to a Fox News inquiry of the incident.
In a video posted to YouTube by TonyVeraNews, a man being interviewed claimed the attacker broke his fishing rod and punched him in the stomach. This guy was having a mental health episode and he basically assaulted me and battered me on the beach, he said. It was more upsetting than serious until he broke my fishing rod and I was like ‘Well, now he does have a weapon.’

City Councilman Mike Bonin announced a new effort last week to connect homeless residents of the Venice boardwalk with shelter and permanent housing. But the six-week program is arriving while people living in the encampments on Ocean Front Walk are weighing an ultimatum from L.A.

The seemingly contradictory approaches are set to collide when Bonin’s “Venice Beach Encampment to Home” program starts on Monday.
