Baltimore City Treating Violence As A Health Problem

BALTIMORE - They're looking at this as a health issue.

Baltimore city says stopping violence should involve behavior change.

Violence, like we saw on Saint Patrick's Day in 2012 is the kind of thing that the city says is preventable by working more closely with young people.

Monday, the city kicked off a week of events designed to help continue the city's Safe Streets program.

A fourth Safe Streets program site in the Park Heights Community was created and should begin operations by this summer.
