DENVER — A few days after two people were shot at a homeless encampment near 17th Avenue and Logan Street in Denver, the city announced it will conduct a cleanup of the area, forcing those living in tents to leave.
“What we know from encampment residents who experienced it directly is that a woman was walking by and a man randomly came up with a mask on and started threatening her and saying something along the lines of, ‘Where are my keys?’ and then began shooting. And encampment residents were victims. They didn't know who the shooter was... the suspect is not tied to the encampment in any way,” Reeves said. “They described 18 bullets going off.
The cleanup was initially scheduled for Wednesday morning, but Reeves said it was pushed back to Thursday after activists told city leaders encampment residents are required to receive 24-hours notice before a sweep. Reeves said she appreciates the Johnston administration providing trash services to encampments, but called this cleanup inhumane.
