http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/01/us/chicago-homicide-shooting-statistics/index.html Chicago police Friday touted a 14% drop in homicides so far this year compared with an exceptionally bloody 2016, saying staffing investments and other strategies are reducing the kinds of violence that left some neighborhoods in despair. Still, the number of killings in the nation's third-largest city in 2017 remains higher than in almost any other year of the past decade -- and Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson said his officers know there's more to do.

This may be a result of innovative record keeping where collateral onlookers are counted as accidental shooting victims.........
