City crews and police clear belongings from Stanbery Park in Mount Washington
City crews and police cleared out belongings from Stanbery Park in Mount Washington on Thursday. Residents were told to take what they could and leave, while their remaining items were discarded. Jessica Johnson, a resident, expressed distress as her belongings, including items from her deceased mother, were taken away. Neighbors have raised safety concerns about the encampment. The city previously faced legal challenges regarding its treatment of homeless individuals. A Supreme Court ruling last June allowed municipalities to enforce rules against sleeping outside. The city has since revised its policies on handling homeless camps.
