Protests over the removal of a homeless encampment ahead of Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game failed to materialize, despite activists’ promise to “make sure all [the city’s] work was for nothing.”
Seattle welcomed thousands of visitors to the city on Tuesday as All-Star players from the American League and National League went head-to-head at T-Mobile Park.
The city forced homeless people living in RVs near the area to move ahead of the multi-day festivities and police maintained a heavy presence around the stadium and tourist hot spots.
