Detroit mayor says mother sought help from housing to death
The mother of the children contacted the mayor on November 25, seeking help in housing. However, 24 hours after the recent death, Mayor Mike Dagggan showed that the issue of housing was never resolved. In addition, the mayor seemed to indicate the lack of communication at both ends.
“For any reason, this was not considered an emergency that made the information -propaganda employee visit the family.… As far as we have managed to determine so far, the family has never called back,” said Daggan. ” To say, our homeless staff never actively addressed to say, “What happened to your situation? Was it resolved?”
At a press conference, the mayor of Duggan showed that a family shelter with affordable beds was “a few miles” by casinos. He also assured the residents of Detroit that there are 1400 open beds and a certificate for asylum seekers.
“The shortest way for someone in emergencies is to move to the police station. They will navigate the process and bring you to the shelter,” said Mayor Duggan.
In response to the incident, Duggan gave two weeks to his employees to reconsider the history of family contacts with the city. “It’s a terrible day in Detroit”, said the mayor.
At the same time, the other three children remain with relatives, said Police Captain Detroit Duda.
