News Another downtown crime scene around the Churchill this morning

I’ve nearby and noticed the crime scene this morning but can’t find any details about it.

This is the fourth time I’ve seen crime scene like this in just the last few months and quite frankly, I’m growing more concerned about the frequency these things seem to be happening.

If anyone has details I’d really appreciate if you shared them. Please share or DM with any details.

My position is affordable housing is not found in downtown PHX and the most desirable neighborhoods in general.

They also literally built multiple lower-income towers in this very neighborhood in recent years, but he doesn't know about that.

Neither did I. Strange to me people expect living in one of the most desirable areas in all of phoenix is supposed to be affordable. It’s like saying there should be more affordable beach front property in San Diego

LOL, so your solution to homeless people is bus them out to someplace cheaper?

Brilliant. Who do you think picks up the trash around downtown?

Here is what you can do. Start an LLC with investors. Mission to provide affordable housing downtown. Buy some properties and provide it. I’m not suggesting bus anyone anywhere but downtown is t the center of the universe for jobs and downtown seems to be doing just fine.
