No News Is Good News

According to JSOnline, it’s been a quiet year for shootings and murder in Milwaukee, and that’s certainly a good thing. According to the article:

Twelve days into the new year, the city has yet to record its first homicide, police reported this morning.

That compares to three homicides reported for the same period in 2007, Milwaukee police Capt. Timothy Burkee said. Overall, 105 people were homicide victims in 2007, two more than had been recorded the year before.

This is good news for the City of Milwaukee, and while it’s not likely to last, let’s all hope it’s the start of something good for the city.
