NYC goes 11 days without a homicide: Modern Record!
Quote:
(CNN)--New York City has gone 11 days without a homicide, its longest stretch without any on modern record, the New York Police Department said Friday.
The record was broken midnight Thursday. It was the 11th full day without a reported homicide.
The last reported homicide was February 1, or Super Bowl Sunday, in Upper Manhattan, a police representative said Friday.
For a city that has a population of nearly 9 million and sees an extra 3-4 million people coming in every single day, some of whom are parts of gangs and even mobs, that's quite good.
This is actually pretty impressive. 20 years ago, the city wouldn't see 3 hours without a reported homicide, let alone nearly 2 weeks.
I can only imagine tha rate if you guys had weather like out here in California 
awful.
foul! I won't even travel there.
