Homeless Crisis in Long Beach
FOXLA.com reported on June 24 about a woman in Long Beach, California, whose aggressive behavior got her killed.
Forty-four-year-old Andrea Powell allegedly was causing trouble throughout the neighborhood. Neighbors didn’t recognize the woman, and her behavior led to many 911 calls. Police received reports of a crazy woman yelling nonsense at people, trying to force her way into houses, and cornering people in a menacing manner. Investigators are reviewing all the evidence of Powell’s rampage that night, including video from Ring doorbell cameras that show her actions at multiple homes in the area. One video showed her trying to enter someone’s backyard while brandishing a large stick before being chased away by a dog.
According to the Long Beach Police Department, a female homeowner was outside her house when Powell allegedly came up from behind her and started attacking her. The victim’s neighbor intervened to try to stop the assault, and Powell began attacking him. In fear for his life, the neighbor shot Powell, who died at the scene.
