Detroit on track to record fewest homicides since 1966, officials say

Detroit is on track to have the fewest yearly homicides in almost 60 years, with an 18% reduction in homicides compared to the previous year.
The decrease in homicides is attributed to a gun violence reduction partnership between the city, Wayne County, and the state, which has resulted in improved coordination among agencies and a drop in carjackings and non-fatal shootings.
The city has implemented strategies such as adding more police officers, increasing pay, and improving communication with prosecutors to address the backlog of cases and reduce crime.
