Aislinn Fava said she was walking to get a smoothie when out of nowhere a homeless man punched her in the back of the head knocking her to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Fava said multiple women have reached out to her after sharing her experience on social media. One woman commented, calling East Village a \u201cwar zone for women.\u201d The same week of Fava\u2019s attack another neighborhood captured surveillance of a homeless man striking a man from behind with a skateboard.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Since launching our concentrated effort in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Downtown?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Downtown<\/a> to connect homeless residents to housing, shelter, and services, we&#8217;ve connected 293 individuals to shelter and had 708 walk-ups for services. Permanent housing is the goal, but these are important first steps. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ForAllofUs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ForAllofUs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria (@MayorToddGloria) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MayorToddGloria\/status\/1415014299664220162?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 13, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Mayor Gloria tried to blame the rise in homeless numbers on COVID-19 measures. \u201cA lot of that has to do with the fact that during the pandemic we had to enforce social distancing rules in our homeless shelters. That meant that literally hundreds of our beds have not been able to be occupied,\u201d suggested Gloria.<\/p>\n<p>In the last two weeks, Gloria said the city was able to shelter around 300 people now that social distancing rules have relaxed. In the latest budget proposal, the mayor said he has allocated $10 million for homeless sheltering with the hope it will begin to eliminate homelessness in San Diego.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/cuba-lifts-food-restrictions-amid-anti-communist-protests\/\">Cuba Lifts Food Restrictions Amid Anti-Communist Protests<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tents line the street in Skid Row in Los Angeles, California.
