With 14 shootings so far this year, gun violence in Carbondale, Illinois, is at its highest level in 10 years, according to records from the Carbondale Police Department.
There was another this weekend in the 500 block of South Graham Street that sent one person to a local hospital.
Police records from a Freedom of Information Act request in April show eight shootings in Carbondale. Records workers inside the police department say there have been another six since then, including the shooting this past Saturday. Records show this is the highest number of shootings in more than a decade.

I’d treat with caution any place with a population 40% black or Hispanic.
