Baltimore had the highest increase in homicides in the nation last year, a criminologist commissioned by the U.S. Department of Justice reported, with more than twice as many extra killings as the three cities that tied for second.

The city suffered 127 more homicides in 2015 than in the previous year, Richard Rosenfeld wrote in "Documenting and Explaining the 2015 Homicide Rise: Research Directions," released this month by the Justice Department.

The ‘locals’ in Baltimore didn’t want the ‘pigs’ interfering in their lives. So they’re not.

Don’t see a problem here, except for the IDIOT MILLENNIALS that go to Inner Harbor thinking that it is somehow exempt from this violence.

Baltimore has a population of 1/3 that of Chicago.

To compare the two cities multiple Baltimore's total by 3 X.
