Homeless advocates working to lower, end heat-related deaths

Maricopa County heat deaths, so far, stand at 7 caused directly by the heat, 6 related to the heat and a total of 92 deaths under investigation. Last year at this time, there were 9 deaths confirmed by the heat and 75 under investigation. With a 35% rise in homelessness in the area in the last two years, Marty Hames with Circle the City says a significant number of those deaths are homeless people.
