Two more fatal shootings in Killeen this weekend are sparking conversation about how to best prevent crime, especially in youth. When we see the crime rate is in direct correlation with the summertime. Our kids are around the house and got nothing to do,â said Killeen Resident Estavon Williams.
Locals are hoping to get more youth programs in the area, like Village Unitedâs drone program, to expose kids to different experiences and prevent them from getting into trouble with the law.
