Mike Torres, a security guard at Wells Fargo, has witnessed a chaotic atmosphere at the 16th Street BART plaza, intensified by the ongoing presence of a SFPD mobile command unit since March 12. Torres, who patrols the area daily, describes his duty as ensuring safety for bank workers and customers amidst the challenges of dealing with disruptive behavior, particularly in the mornings. He observes that while police check the area hourly, the crowds often return after being dispersed, and he points to nearby spaces like the Kailash Hotel as hubs for drug-related activities.
The police officers would usually check the alleyways but leave people alone if they were on their own. Dispersed crowds would often return.
Torres emphasized the chaotic atmosphere of the plaza, stating that mornings are the craziest due to many people camping out.
