Tacoma deals with three homicides in the first three weeks of the year
TACOMA - In 2020, Tacoma saw a 47% increase in homicides in comparison to the year before; so far in 2021 there have been three homicides in less than three full weeks.
On Monday night, Tacoma Police responded to two separate shooting incidents.
In total, four people were shot and one was killed. In both incidents, no arrests have been made and there is no suspect information. It’s disheartening, and it brings me to tears, said Candace Wesley.
