BELLINGHAM, Wash. Four people were arrested and three police officers injured during a clash between homeless advocates and law enforcement outside Bellingham City Hall Thursday.
A large homeless camp has been growing since November outside City Hall. City officials call it an occupation.
Bellingham Police Chief Flo Simon said some of the protesters were members of antifa and other groups out to confront law enforcement.
Approximately 100 tents had been set up but only about half were occupied, according to the city.
