A community advocate and the Winnipeg firefighters' union say something needs to be done about unoccupied homes after firefighters were called to three fires in a 12-hour period on the weekend, two of which were in vacant houses.
Community activist Sel Burrows talked to a witness of one of three attacks that happened early Monday, and says it appears that all three victims were homeless. The attacks illustrate how people experiencing homelessness are vulnerable to violence, he says.
