A ‘sweeps-free’ encampment popped up at San Fran City Hall. Two days later, cops swept it

A short-lived protest encampment in front of San Francisco City Hall that was billed as a “sweeps-free sanctuary” was swept by police early Thursday, less than two days after it was set up.

At least 30 cops were on hand for the 2 a.m. sweep, along with park rangers and other city workers, video taken by an organizer shows.

Police were seen with riot helmets and batons strapped to their waists, leading away homeless people who had their belongings in carts. No property was confiscated, and no arrests were made, the protest’s organizers said. The video appeared to show that all the tents were taken down.
