Police Raid Camp for Unhoused Residents of Denver, Displacing 200
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Around 200 people have been displaced in Denver, Colorado, after local
and state police closed down a large encampment where people without
homes have been living. No advance notice was given before the Wednesday
morning sweep of Lincoln Park. Around 150 tents were removed. One member
of the Denver School Board - Tay Anderson - was hospitalized with a
concussion after being knocked over by police while protesting the raid.
