October 9

False arrests,... and higher crime ??

The official murder count today is 216, versus 208 this time last year, up 4%.

The official count of nonfatal gunshot incidents is 487 today, versus 437 last year, up 11.5%.

The young boy found killed in Leakin Park has been identified. Mr. Garrett, it is pointed out by the police, has a long and sordid criminal history. Yeah, and as I said, he's still dead.

I failed to take note of a double shooting of two young males on Llewelyn Ave. in East Baltimore. It was quite a weekend.

Another man was nonfatally shot in his car around 8:00 p.m. Mon. night at Lewiston & Gist in Northwest. Police have no suspects at this time.

On the plus side, Mayor O'Malley had a grand time at the parade telling everyone how much better things are.
