Group erects tent city for Detroit homeless on city's east side

A civil rights group has set up about two dozen tents along a Detroit street to provide shelter for the homeless and highlight poverty in the city. The tents are part of the Detroit Southern Christian Leadership Conference Poor People's Campaign, the organization's president, the Rev. Aaron McCarthy, said Tuesday. McCarthy says the one-person tents have been up about four days on the city's east side. He says the homeless in the area arrive at night to bed down out of the elements.
