Reply to comment by LurkerOrHydralisk in Baltimore police make arrests after ride-share passengers robbed by locker1313

I mean the murder rate is in line with that of the last several years. Still sad and way too high but not really an anomaly or increase.

I also can’t seem to find anything saying violent crime is up this year versus years previous.

There have been a lot of carjackings in Hampden. Used to be every year or two there’d be a gang out doing carjackings or muggings for a weekend, but this year it has just kept going and going.

This week they were carjacking Uber drivers to steal the car, pick up the next passenger, and rob them.
