‘I try not to sleep’: vigilante attacks on LA's homeless said to increase

‘I try not to sleep’: vigilante attacks on LA's homeless said to increase | US news | The Guardian

Growing danger combined with anti-homeless policy proposals have made city unfriendly for those on the streets

Arson, assault, harassment and vandalism: as the rising cost of housing funnels more Los Angeles residents out of their homes and onto the streets, homeless people and their advocates are reporting an alarming rise in vigilante attacks against the unhoused.

In late August, a fast-moving fire in the hip, residential neighborhood of Eagle Rock briefly dominated headlines when it temporarily closed down two freeways and triggered a small-scale evacuation. In the week that followed, authorities revealed the fire had started in a homeless encampment, and was set by two men, one the son of the local chamber of commerce president. No one was injured, but prosecutors are reportedly considering charges of attempted murder.
