The latest attack occurred at Southeast 4th Avenue and Ivon Street. According to the police report, on Jan. 8, Bruno Arthur Schultz, 51, said he heard someone outside his camping box and climbed out to see some guys tagging the wall next to his box. Schultz confronted them and they beat him up. There were five to six suspects, no description. Schultz went back to sleep after the assault then reported it when he attended his AA meeting in the morning. Schultz was transported by ambulance to an area hospital for treatment for multiple facial fractures. There have been no arrests in the case. Last month, four teenagers were arrested after beating two homeless individuals in North Portland. In another attack reported by Street Roots, rocks were thrown at individuals experiencing homelessness near St. Francis in November, injuring a man sleeping outdoors.
