Baltimore Mayor: ‘Violence Is Still Down’ Despite Surge In Murders

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — After a decline in murders to start the new year, gunfire in Baltimore spiraled out of control in April with more than 30 people killed.

The city went 12 days without a murder in February, but since then, the numbers have spiked. April brought dozens of homicides, but the mayor says despite the recent surge, violence in Baltimore is still trending downward.

One crime scene after the other scattered across city streets is a familiar dread that has returned to Baltimore.

“All across the country, people are looking at Baltimore in a negative light because of the violence. This is a great city and it’s a shame,” Dr. Rev. Andre Humphrey said.

    It's referring to violent crimes, which are different from homicides. For an honest title it should say "Violent crimes on the decline, but increasing Homicides in Baltimore."
