Portland 129 Incidents Of Gang Violence so far in 2015, saw a news report today on Fox 12.
So in a place where there are no gun allowed makes me wonder what the deem as a violent incident.
The Tactical Operations Division – which houses the gang unit, Gun Task Force and Metro Gang Task Force – has seized 137 firearms as evidence in criminal cases from 2015.
The bureau released the following statistics for yearly total incidents of gang violence:
2011 – 103
2012 – 118
2013 – 106
2014 – 109
2015 – 121 (as of Sep. 1, 2015)
Police Chief Lawrence P. O'Dea, III said, "there are still a number of unsolved shootings and we continue to see a high level of gang activity. We are working with our youth violence prevention partners and we are asking community members to come forward with information as well as support local city and community efforts to prevent gang and gun violence."
