The city finally released its report on 41.18, and they dropped it on a Friday afternoon for a reason, because the results are BAD. Over 1,000 arrests, nearly 2 million dollars on signs, and only 2 people permanently housed. Thread below, or full report:

The Sparks game is a minute in and there are still hundreds of fans outside waiting to get in. They made us drive to Long Beach and they can't even get people into the building. Los Angeles Sparks is a clown organization.

At debrief today, we heard a lot of folks exhausted by repeated sweeps. At one spot, folks were told to move and that they would get shelter. An hour later, after much of their stuff was trashed, they were told that there was no shelter after all. 🧵
