25th most dangerous city. What ever happened to my old beloved city? Ya'll are catching up with Dallas, Gary and Detroit (the traditional "bad" cities). Seriously, the above post showed more crime than I think Dallas had last week
What is RT Rybeck (sp?) doing about this? MPLS used to have an awesome gang force until he dissolved it (not that all of the crime is gang related). Usually when you have a good gang taskforce they can decrease gang and drug issues. You will not prevent all crime, but you can at least clean up the city!
39th & RUSSELL SATURDAY 1049 HOURS 08-380463
75 year old white female robbed of $4.00 @ gunpoint by two 18-25 year old black males. 18 year old black male w/83 CAPRS later located in the area wearing the same clothing but unknown if involved.
83 police records at 18 years old, and still out on the street robbing senior citizens at gunpoint for $4.

Most crime in Minneapolis is juvenile crime, which is why Rybak's tackling of the problem has yielded lower crime rates (by double digits) two years running. We haven't broken 40 murders. Saying that this city is "catching up" to Detroit isn't making you sound less credible than the Morgan Quitno list. Does anyone really think that Saint Paul is more dangerous than Savannah? Don't believe everything that you read.

As opposed to "good crime"? Of course it has crime, but its not overrun with it.
You don't even live in Minneapolis, so you cant really judge.
