Despite a myriad of anti-crime efforts, increased reward for murder tips and a bevy of community outreach . . . The quotient of local killing continues.
Today's homicide brings the uptick in KCMO killing to nearly 12% over last year as this cowtown counts its 104th homicide so far this year compared to 93 at this date on the calender last year.
Deets:
KCPD: The shooting started at 77th Street and Blue Ridge Boulevard and continued for the three blocks.
Check the links:
Fox4: 1 dead, 1 injured in double shooting near 79th and Blue Ridge during rush hour
KMBC: 1 dead, 1 critically hurt in shooting near 80th Terrace, Blue Ridge
KSHB: Two people in a black Ford Mustang were shot, and the car went off of the road and into a driveway where it struck a parked car.

$25K to be had. Claim it and take killers off the street.
ReplyDeleteSeems like there's a shooting on this street nearly every day. A good spot for a police outpost or more patrols.
Delete^^^^^ Yes, dickhead. More police on KC streets is what neighborhoods throughout the city have been asking for over the past two years. Just get into town. It's an investment in resources that they keep promising year over year and incrementally when it's obvious we need more cops on the streets NOW.

in the hood
Can we shoot at people shooting at people?
ReplyDeleteI really do think that we need an honest evaluation of how the tips program worked after this summer. I know that everything needs to be given time to prove effective but if anything I've seen the homicide count get worse ever since the tip was announced. The only thing we've seen is more money withdrawn from the general fund in order to finance a program that is based on faulty logic and not much evidence. If we do break the homicide record this year it's time to reconsider subsidizing the criminal class.
ReplyDeleteKc = Detroit
ReplyDeleteSo if you receive money for a tip the catches a killer your supposed to remain anonymous right? Did these fools forget that you more than likely have to go to court as a witness.
ReplyDelete^^^^ Good point, there has always been a lot of debate if anonymous tips are really anonymous.
ReplyDeleteRaytown is just glad is wasnt another street over.
ReplyDeleteHey Steve @7:30 you forgot about those bike lanes and those Green Line walking trails. They call that Progress. There's so much more important things to get done when your a progressive, so please keep them votes coming in for that Democratic Pie in the Sky Party. Don't sweet the small stuff Go Bernie !
