Rise in verbal abuse hurled at shoppers by rough sleepers

This is a disturbing new thing in verbal abuse--the homeless abusing people going about their daily business.

I see another Stephen King novel on the way....

Rise in verbal abuse hurled at shoppers by rough sleepers - View News: "Weymouth and Portland community safety spokesman Councillor Francis Drake began to talk to View From about the threat but then had to break off as one of the “disturbed” street people abused a group of people just yards away in St Mary Street. Councillor Drake said: “I have been told of many incidents, seemingly committed by street people who have a serious mental problem. This is something quite recent."
