Fantastic response by @LAPDPacific and @LAFDwest who were able to calm the man down, get the cuffs on him, and load him into an ambulance. The man even thanked them for helping him. Let’s hope he gets the help he needs and isn’t back out here tomorrow doing the same thing again. pic.twitter.com/ppWwg6aYs6

Mike, aka German in Venice, vlogs about daily life in Venice Beach, and the nearby communities.

"Today, the city removed all the homeless people from the side of the boardwalk to the sand area to make sure nobody gets hurt while they cut the palm trees. I went with the German camera team to show them around. They wanted to do a story about the homeless encampments on Venice Beach. It was a beautiful day, and after all the tree trimming, it looked very nice."
