New York City celebrates day without violent crime

Quote:

For the first time in living memory, New York has spent a day entirely without violent crime.

Quote:

The city police department's chief spokesman said that Monday was the most bloodshed-free 24-hour period in recent history.

Not a single murder, shooting, stabbing or other incident of violent crime was reported for a whole day.

Despite a July spike in homicides, the city's murder rate is on target to hit its lowest point since 1960.

Just a few months ago, residents were living through what one tabloid newspaper called the "summer of blood".

Immediately after the announcement, they probably found a whole street with freshly bullet-ridden bodies.

Half-past two here. Not time for tea yet, and I'm a coffee man anyway. Hope you enjoy your day.
