DENVER – Denver Mayor Mike Johnston's homeless initiative focuses on getting unhoused residents into shelters. But a triple stabbing at a shelter for unhoused families is raising concerns about safety.
"Preliminary information indicated there was a disturbance involving several individuals that escalated to the stabbing," DPD spokesperson Jay Casillas said. Mark Anthony Rodriguez has been experiencing homelessness on-and-off for six years. He received housing in the hotel close to where the stabbing happened.“They’re kind of working out a few bugs, but it's pretty much nice and safe,” said Rodriguez."It's good. It's nice. We have a nice rooms and our own showers."
He said guests who follow the rules are able to stay up to 90 days while they work with case managers to figure out next steps.
