Philadelphia Closes 2011 With Highest Per-Capita Murder Rate In U.S.
Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey.
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Philadelphia is closing out another year with homicides up again. On a per-capita measurement, the city has the highest murder rate among big U.S. cities.
The homicide tally was 324 heading into the last two days of the year, above last year’s 306, and 302 the year before.
Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey says the five-year high water mark was 2007, “It’s one thing to say in ’07 we had 392. But, for the 324 we’ve had this year, it doesn’t bring any comfort to the family. It certainly doesn’t bring any comfort to me.”
