Sunday Morning Coming Down: Calling The Cops On Homeless People

Published Aug 23, 2015 · 2:30 AM PDT

  • The [SF Chronicle] takes a walk with a woman who calls the cops any time she sees a struggling homeless person (and the Coalition on Homelessness thinks it's great). [Update: Jennifer Friedenbach, Executive Director of the Coalition on Homelessness says that the Chronicle piece as it initially ran mischaracterized her words, and that '"people should not call police, but should call [a] medical team when people are medically compromised." SFist apologizes for repearing the Chronicle's error.]
