Last summer, dozens died in Maricopa County from heat-related causes, and they're working hard to make sure it doesn't happen again this summer.
Maricopa County heat deaths, so far, stand at 7 caused directly by the heat, 6 related to the heat and a total of 92 deaths under investigation. Last year at this time, there were 9 deaths confirmed by the heat and 75 under investigation. "We're hearing about people found dead inside their tents. It's just such a myriad of that. Usually, we see the encampment kind of thin out during the summer with people going to cooler areas. We're not seeing that this summer. We're seeing those numbers still stay high in the encampments," Hames says.He became homeless and was living out on the streets back in March before the temperatures were even nearing 100.
