Sault tweakers: We want our city back

Concerns About Downtown Safety

A recent incident in the Downtown Plaza area has raised concerns about safety and the well-being of individuals in the community.

On a Saturday, while driving to the multiplex cinema, a number of individuals were seen loitering at the corner of Brock and Bay Streets, with one person shouting at a coffee shop patron, seemingly unaware of their surroundings, including their own state of dress.

Upon arriving at the cinema, a disturbing scene was encountered: a young woman lying on the ground, surrounded by a group of hooded men who appeared to be administering something to her, laughing and enjoying themselves.

I wanted to attend to this young woman. However, I decided to stay clear as I was not sure that maybe one of the hooded delinquents might assault me, as they seemed to have a vested interest in this young woman.

This incident highlights the need for increased awareness and support for those struggling with addiction and mental health issues in the community.
