CULLING THE HERD
For the past 14 years, the Times-Union has kept a running tally of homicides that occur within the city’s limits. Aug. 12 is the earliest time in the year that the city has reached its 100th homicide. Should this violence continue, the city is on track to surpass a record made in 2007 when 151 people were victims of homicide by the year’s end. In that record-breaking year, it took until Aug. 21 to reach its 100th homicide.
