"Utsatt industriområde med sopor på gatorna och aktiva missbrukare i portarna bredvid.. vi Bevittnade våld precis utanför boendet mellan en man och kvinna. Mannen sprang ut med baseballträ. Gatan utanför buender var avstängd så vi fick parkera i ett industriområde en bit ifrån och rulla väskorna på en gata till boendet. Otryggt och obehagligt område att ha ett ”hotell/ motell” på. Vi reser med barn och de blev chockade."
