Right on the sidewalk next to Mesa Drive we witnessed a homeless encampment pop up and remain there for at least several hours without police showing up.
Our reporter witnessed the encampment pop up on the East side of Mesa Drive, close to Southern Avenue. The encampment remained there for at least a number of hours with police apparently not being dispatched to clear it out.
Around Pioneer Park, which hosts a huge children's playground, a large number of homeless people can be seen living in encampments. The City of Mesa apparently tolerate bums, drug users and criminals right next to playing children.
Luckily Mesa mayor John Giles, a RINOcon, endorsed leftist Mark Kelly for Senate, over MAGAcon Blake Masters. Maybe that will solve the issue...
We had previously reported on homelessness in Chandler, and on the much bigger homeless encampments that can be found in Phoenix, including rampant crime.
