36-Hour Murder-Free SPREE in NYC!

Between 10:30 p.m. this past Sunday night until 11:20 a.m. Tuesday morning, there were no reported murders, officially making Monday in NYC a murder-free day. NYPD officials say they can’t recall the last time such a day occurred. Better yet, officially, there was not one reported slaying, stabbing, shooting or knifing in any of the five boroughs on Monday, according to NYPD. The length of no-violence stretched out over 36 hours, and began Sunday evening when a man was shot in the head and lasted until Tuesday morning when a teenager accidentally shot himself in the leg. Monday’s feat spotlights a broad trend of dropping homicide rates, and for a city that once suffered from high crime rates, this is a hopeful sign.
