(NEWSER) – Looks like Jeffrey Hillman's problems are a lot more complicated than mere shoelessness: The 54-year-old panhandler given new shoes by an NYPD officerand seen barefoot again days later used to be homeless, but has had an apartment in the Bronx secured by Veterans Affairs since 2009, officials tell NBC 4. "He does have stable housing," says New York City's homeless services commissioner. "We’ve worked with Mr. Hillman for years."
