Well Columbus did not end the year well...with 15 homicides in December(the most for any month of the year) including 9 murders in the last 8 days of the year. I guess Tocin007 was closer to the truth than I thought.
99 homicides for 2015, up from 89 last year. population 2014 estimate at 835,957. 11.84 per 100,000 rate.
Inner suburb of Whitehall even worse-9 homicides for a town of 18,062 in 2010.
