As reported by FOX 2:
Starting off the new year on a positive note, the Detroit Police Department announced a historic decrease in homicides since 1966.
"Hopefully people are starting to get that ‘if I commit a crime and take someone’s life, I could lose my liberty,’" said Steve Dolunt, a retired DPD assistant chief.
The city recorded 252 homicides in 2023, according to data from DPD. In 2022, 308 homicides were recorded.
Overall, the data shows a 1.6% decline in crime rates in Detroit from 2022 to 2023.
"We’ve seen it become increasingly difficult to commit crimes and not get away with them," said Adam Hollier, a former member of the Michigan Senate.
Community work and the use of technology has assisted DPD in reducing crime rates, officials said.
