The homeless sweep on Denargo Street in north Denver on Thursday, January 26.

Forty individuals camped out along Denargo Street in north Denver were made to move their tents and belongings on Thursday morning, January 26. The sweep, which was carried out by Public Works employees and enforced by the Denver Police Department, is the latest in a string of encampment cleanups that have occurred regularly since March 2016. But Thursday's sweep lacked the derision and protest that characterized some of the earlier actions.
