PHILADELPHIA (CBS) โ "These are tough times for all of us but perhaps even more so for the homeless population. The city is now allowing dozens of homeless people to stay overnight in a Philadelphia International Airport terminal, and for airport employees, there are some major safety concerns.
Before the COVID-19 outbreak, Terminal A at the Philadelphia International Airport was a busy hub. Airport officials say it is open but since international flights are not arriving, itโs not being used for passengers. But when night falls, it is being used to house some in the homeless population.
โIโve seen an increase of homeless people at the airport,โ said an airport baggage handler who wished to remain anonymous."
