Portsmouth has stepped up efforts to clean up the area, with code enforcement making regular visits to trashy houses, non-running vehicles, and homeless encampments.
One of those calls led to a lot of drama on 5th Street in Sciotoville. Just after 1 p.m., code enforcement contacted officers to report that people on the scene were being uncooperative.

Officers ended up calling an ambulance to the scene for a person in distress and also sent for animal control to take possession of some critters at the scene.
They also arranged for a vehicle to be towed.
