A homeless man has sued the city of Los Angeles, claiming local police have posted his image and that of others on Facebook group pages that track illegal encampments of people living on the streets.
Rex Schellenberg, 81, who filed the suit Monday, said he was appalled when he learned that a cop had been sharing information about him and other homeless people on Facebook.
'Telling them who we were and what we were doing. Our personal problems,' said Schellenberg, 81, who has lived on the streets of the San Fernando Valley for years.
