'Life in the Shadows' Segment 3: 'Bob's Bridge'
SAN ANTONIO – Many of San Antonio's homeless prefer to be out of sight and not in a shelter.
Bob is one of them.
He talks with KSAT's Steve Spriester about the life he leads under a bridge along Loop 410, what he thinks may be the solution to homelessness and even why he doesn't consider himself homeless.
Bob breaks down a lot of the stereotypes around whose homeless, but he also thinks places like Haven For Hope should be shut down.
Bob is a man who admits he wants his piece of the American dream, but isn't sure anyone else sees the dream the same way.
