Columbus OH already has 45-50 homicides, on track easily for a record number of bodies this year.
That's crazy high for Columbus.
Ohio cities probably gonna follow the nationwide trend. Akron is already over 15. Not sure about Cleveland but saw that shootings are way up over last year and YTD homicides are up as well. But Cleveland was on pace for a real low number, for its standards, around this time (probably 20ish) before it really blew up and the city finished with 190.
Antecodal but so far for Cleveland it seems like the fringe city and inner burbs are seeing a huge increase. Parma had 3 in the past week or so, then there was an incident where 8 people were shot the other day inside a motorcycle club right on the Cleveland/Parma border. There was also an incident at a restaurant on the Cleveland/Lakewood border where 2 were killed and a couple more shot the last week. Thats just the westside. The Eastside inner burbs, though not surprisingly anymore, have had quite a few shootings/muders.
True. Time will tell all though the shooting upstick is alarming
I know it's perception but NY (outside Manhattan) has felt the safest it has ever to me. I take my dog around Brooklyn all the time when I'm in the area.
Looks like in the first quarter of 2021, homicides are down about 30% in Milwaukee. Currently at 24 which is 10 less than the same time last year. 2020 was an awful year for Milwaukee for homicides so here's hoping the downward trend persists this year there: https://projects.jsonline.com/apps/M...cide-Database/
