Cleanup crews removed homeless encampments and debris in Inglewood for the second day in a row - and some are speculating the upcoming Super Bowl is a factor.
The homeless encampment near the Century Boulevard exit to the 405 Freeway was cleared Monday and Tuesday.
Caltrans posted a notice at the site 72-hours in advance of the cleanup, on January 20, to allow those at the encampment time to gather their belongings and take advantage of services. "For people who have taken residence on the freeway inside of Inglewood, on our overpasses, on our off-ramps and on-ramps, this is just another one of those supportive housing endeavors," Butts said.
