San Francisco Auction House Drenches Homeless Campers With Sprinklers « CBS San Francisco
Sponsored By June 8, 2016 2:06 PM SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) — Homeless people in a San Francisco neighborhood say an auction house drenched them with sprinklers in an effort to drive them away. Heather, a homeless woman, had been camping in the northeastern edge of Potrero Hill next to U.S. Highway 101 recently and said some businesses make a difficult situation worse. "There are some businesses that purposely cause trouble. They believe that it is a sanitation problem because certain people use the restroom in their tents. But, the city of San Francisco doesn't give us any public access to restrooms that we can use. Nobody wants to go to the bathroom where they sleep," Heather said. Heather said Bonhams Auction House on San Bruno Ave. between 15th and 16th Streets turned on their roofline sprinklers two nights ago, drenching her tent. At least five city trucks were cleaning up a block away on Utah Street Wednesday after police told about 12 homeless campers to vacate the area.Read full article from San Francisco Auction House Drenches Homeless Campers With Sprinklers « CBS San Francisco
