Homicide stats in Canadian Cities
Another year, another tally.
And unfortunately Calgary may be off to a bad start, not confirmed yet as a homicide but there was suspicious death early this morning. |

Maybe 2009 will be a murder free year like Quebec City, but i doubt it. There were a few shootings in the last two nights as well. Quote:

Does anybody really expect the murder rate for Canadian Cities to be any different than it was last year?
I imagine it will pretty much be the same.

Those statistics are way off, as was pointed out in the other article that had them.
Overall the rate will probably be about the same though year over year. |

Constable Jacqueline Chaput tells CJOB the call came in at 2:40 a.m. (wed) regarding a shooting at a residence in the 600 block of Magnus Street between Mackenzie and Parr Streets. She says the woman who was shot was conveyed to hospital with life threatening injuries, but succumbed to her wounds. Chaput says the shooting does not appear to be a domestic matter, partly because the woman was inside the home when she was shot while the shooter was outside the house. The woman's age has not been released, and police say there have been no arrests yet or information available on any suspects. The homicide unit is investigating a number of witnesses. CJOB Colleen Bready reporting. |
Toronto has one as well, 14 y-o female, Police caught the two little pricks who did it too.

Years ago it seemed that only a small handful of murders occured by gun. Now it seems like the preferred weapon of choice in Winnipeg. |

Updated Wed. Jan. 2 2008 6:30 PM ET toronto.ctv.ca A 14-year-old girl who died after being stabbed on New Year's Day is the daughter of two Toronto police officers, CTV News has confirmed. Police have not identified the victim, who died after being attacked on Tuesday night. She is the city's first murder of the year. On Wednesday, police arrested a 17-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl and charged them with first-degree murder. |
Damn :(
Toronto gets off to an early start as usual. I'm betting Hamilton will have it's first at some point this month as well, though it'll probably still be a quiet year. |
Thunder Bay will have one by the end of the month. 2006 and 2007 were both like that. A murder in late January then another in November or December.
|
Quebec City got his first murder since OCT 2006.
