Homeless people are 13 times more likely to be the victims of some violent crimes than the general public, according to a new interim report.

A study for homeless charity Crisis interviewed 336 people from London, Oxford and Cambridge.
It found that 52% said they had been victims of a violent attack, compared with only 4% of the general public.
