WEST POINT—Eight homeless people who were previously living in an underpass in West Point have not been seen for several days according to Kevin Pigg, case manager at Circle of Care. Pigg, along with others from Circle of Care, have been working to provide needed food, water and medication to the homeless individuals in need.
“We are trying to do everything we can to make sure they are being taken care of,” Pigg said. “Unfortunately, when I went to see them, they had moved and we have not been able to locate them since.”
