Baltimore City hits milestone, 10 days without murder


Baltimore City hits milestone, 10 days without murder

The last time Baltimore had a 10-day span with no homicides was in March 2014

Baltimore City hits milestone, 10 days without murder

BALTIMORE —
The effort to reduce violent crime in Baltimore City has hit a milestone. It has been 10 days without a murder.

Determined to eliminate the high number of homicides and other serious crimes in Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh has praised her violence reduction initiative. But, she said, others also share in the success of 10 days without a murder in the city.

You can stop cheering. It's only a miracle, not any mayor's initiatives, that the city has gone this long without a murder.

Crime in Baltimore has been down the past couple of months compared to this time period a year ago. Here is hoping that trend will continue.

Was Pugh right? Is Baltimore 'trending in the right direction' crime-wise? - Baltimore Sun

There should be more replies in this thread; there was certainly more activity in the gloomy threads.

The improving economy might be helping squash violence, but the killing still happens too often
in Baltimore.



A recent death linked to a past shooting in Baltimore has increased the 2018 homicide count to 30, according to police.
Maurice Anthony Knight, 34, was shot on June 16 about 10:08 p.m. near the 4000 block of Old York Road in North Baltimore. He was treated at a local hospital, then transferred to a rehabilitation and assisted living facility for further care, police said.

This is fantastic ! I am curious though how this was accomplished and why it wasn't done before.

When Pugh can figure out a way to keep the temperature below freezing for the whole year that would look more like the miracle Baltimore needs to keep the killing rate down..
