San Diego Neighborhood Coalition leader is calling on the city to prosecute homeless people if they commit crimes, no matter how small

When Phuong Hyunh arrived outside her salon in Little Italy, she couldn’t believe her eyes. The front window of Bella Paris Nails and Spa was splattered with white paint and the glass was shattered by a rock.

“Small businesses can’t afford these kinds of costs,” said Kevin Arnold, who lives in Little Italy and is president of the San Diego Neighborhood Coalition. Arnold said the coalition wants to see crime taken more seriously. He said he wants to see even small-time criminals prosecuted and that his group will pressure the city Attorney to do just that.

For her part, Hyunh told NBC 7 that homeless people camp outside her door every night, leaving behind the smell of urine and the filth of fecal matter. When NBC 7 arrived Monday morning, the entry to her shop was wet after the human waste was washed away with a hose.The conditions are so bad, she claims, some of her customers are afraid to come to her store. Other business owners say they plan to move out of the area.
