BUFFALO, N.Y. — With two more fatal shootings reported Sunday, the Buffalo violent crime index keeps rising at an alarming rate, just like many other cities across the country.
The Buffalo Citi-Stats program shows there is an average of 50 homicides in the city each year. The database shows there were 44 homicides in 2019, but it jumped to 65 in 2020. The Buffalo News reports that these two recent cases pushed the rate to 47 so far this year, at the halfway mark in June.
