A city has reportedly been overrun by homeless people who destroyed a deserted motel and left hundreds of kilos of faeces in the street, its disgruntled mayor has claimed.<\/p>\n
Casper in Wyoming, US, has seen about 200 unhoused people move in and create a "mess" in its streets and parks, Mayor Bruce Knell claims.<\/p>\n
"They destroyed everything," he told Cowboy State Daily. "It\u2019s horrible."<\/p>\n

Employees of the city told the news outlet they'd had to scoop up about 230kg of human faeces from around the city's downtown area.<\/p>\n
"In desperate times people do desperate things, and unfortunately we\u2019re the ones left having to deal with it," Knell continued.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He even said a group of squatters had moved into the vacant Econo Lodge motel and caused millions of dollars' worth of damage \u2013 even more destruction than a flood that initially forced the place to close down earlier this year.<\/p>\n
The property was condemned by the city and boarded up after shock images revealed the destruction caused by damaged water lines.<\/p>\n
Knell said the building was "[un]inhabitable and unsafe" following the destruction and previously explained the building had stopped operating as a motel in November of last year.<\/p>\n

The mayor added other people had started squatting in a number of abandoned properties throughout the town, some of which don't have water or electricity.<\/p>\n
Some have reportedly also started camping in local parks or on bike paths or sleeping in their cars.<\/p>\n

Knell reckons the sudden influx can in part be pinned to the presence of a homeless shelter in the city, and he added when people are rejected from the centre, some never leave.<\/p>\n
"There\u2019s a certain part of the homeless population, whether substance abuse or mental illness, that is getting them to where they don\u2019t want to conform to society\u2019s rules," Knell added.<\/p>\n
"When they do that they\u2019re not allowed to go in the shelter, which means they\u2019re just out and about in our community raising hell."<\/p>\n
