Any news of suburbs dumping homeless into large city limits? [View all]

Last edited Tue Jan 16, 2018, 02:42 PM - Edit history (1)

Several years back, there was an outcry when some of the homeless being discovered in downtown St. Louis City were dumped by outlying suburban police departments. Have anyone noticed this practice too? I remembered this when articles on 'Hospitals dumping patients' started coming out...

Is this a common occurrence? Just curious if this practice happens elsewhere...
