The City of Los Angeles is removing a homeless encampment in the Toriumi Plaza area of Little Tokyo on Thursday, prompting backlash from local homeless advocacy groups who plan to protest the cleanup.
The cleanup is targeted at the stretch along the intersection of First Street and Judge John Aiso Street.
Early Thursday morning, several trucks and crews arrived in the area and fenced off the corner including Toriumi Plaza. The closure and cleanup are, according to city leaders, so that repairs can take place in the plaza.
