San Francisco Mayor's Outdoor Drug Crisis Meeting Descends into Chaos and Arrest.
A protester was arrested for throwing a brick during San Francisco Mayor London Breed's outdoor hearing on cracking down on homeless open air drug markets. The meeting was moved to United Nations Plaza, which has grown rampant with drug dealing and stolen good sales. The protester was identified as 26-year-old Elysia Katet and was booked on charges of child endangerment and assault with a deadly weapon. The incident occurred after heckling and chants of "no more cops" from the large crowd. The mayor argued that force is necessary to help people struggling with drug addiction and that compassion is killing people.
