Originally Published by: Accused killer caught in Missouri after California jail mistakenly freed him 7-month-old baby killed by stray bullet in Brooklyn shooting, police say Democrat Providence mayor slams mural project dedicated to slain Iryna Zarutska Business leaders and city officials in Savannah, Georgia — often described as one of America’s most picturesque destinations, known for its Spanish moss-draped oaks, waterfront views and ornate ironwork — say they are working to reclaim parts of the historic city from growing homelessness, encampments and public safety concerns. “We have seen the recent articles detailing a visitor’s experience in our city and the visible challenges posed by homelessness, vagrancy, and related public safety concerns in our historic public squares and public spaces,” a joint statement provided to Fox News Digital by the City of Savannah, the Savannah Chamber and the Savannah Tourism Leadership Council said. While the groups pushed back on some coverage as “designed to generate clicks by sensationalizing issues,” they acknowledged the problems are real and increasingly visible to residents, business owners and tourists.
