Detroit homicides in 2024 drop to level not seen since 1965

Detroit police restrict the intersection of Woodward Avenue and Congress in downtown Detroit after a shooting left one dead and one wounded outside a bar around 1:30 am February 4, 2006. The shooting occurred steps away from Motown Winter Blast, a four-day festival held in conjunction with Super Bowl XL. Winter Blast had concluded at 1 am but hundreds of people were still on the streets celebrating the Feb. 5 Super Bowl XL to be held in downtown Detroit. REUTERS/Rebecca Cook

Detroit ended 2024 with about 203 homicides — down 49 from the year before and the fewest in the city since 188 were committed in 1965, said Mayor Mike Duggan.
