Residents at LA's tiny homes hoped to find a safe place to get back on their feet. Instead, many said they faced harsh safety & health hazards that made life harder.

California Press Rights Tracking Doc (Consolidated)
Investigating LAPD-press incidents in Los Angeles on Saturday. No doubt LAPD violated court injunction. Just a question of how bad.
So far I think only minor injuries to press. Still confirming. Not a passing grade regardless.
Preliminary leads in blue at top. Please share evidence if you have!
