SAN ANTONIO – City crews cleared out a homeless camp in downtown San Antonio Wednesday and cleaned the area following a string of violent crimes and health hazards, police said.
The decision to shut down the camp of about 50 tents at the overpass at Interstate 37 and Brooklyn was made after the San Antonio Police Department evaluated the situation a week ago, SAPD Sgt. Dean Reuter said.
SAPD has responded to numerous incidents, including shootings and stabbings, Reuter said. In one case, a homeless person was set on fire, he said. Police also responded to reports of extortion with homeless people forced to pay for protection.
