14850452

An emerging legal battle right now---split by a fence. A homeless encampment in the North Bay is sparring with and suing a local tire shop that operates on the other side.

Tuesday, May 21, 2024 7:03AMSAN RAFAEL, Calif. --"The first night, I got to bed at 1 a.m.. The second night, I got no sleep during the night. And the third night, Sunday night, I had no way to get any sleep," he said.The reason he says he can't sleep is due to a machine that is set up right next door at the East Bay Tire Company.It shouts security warnings and people passing by, and also plays classical music from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.

The company says they've seen everything from illegal drug use, to prostitution happening at the encampment. East Bay Tire says the music and the security system is not about driving the folks who live in these encampments out of here though. They tell us it's actually about keeping their employees and customers safe.
