Don’t let this get lost in the mayhem from Southside in the upcoming year-end recounting of the city: the number of homicides on the East End is at a historic low in 2014.
With 2 weeks left in 2014, there have been only 4 killings in the East End this year.
The previous low was 9 (in 2009 and 2012). Ten years ago, there were 27 people killed in the East End; twenty years ago there were 34.

One more day left in 2014 and only 4 people killed in the East End this year. Previous low was 9. AMAZING. http://t.co/XurwUtDpNY
4 homicides in the East End in 2014. Fewer than 1/2 of the previous low & likely holds back to the early 1960s http://t.co/XurwUtDpNY #rva
Made it.
