City council member Jan-Michele Kearney said council is discussing adding money to the Safe and Clean Fund, which gives money to community councils to develop their own neighborhood safety plans.
Police said, overall, shootings are down this year to 292. That’s compared to 397 this time last year. So far in 2021, police have confiscated more than 1,200 guns.
“That doesn’t make us feel any better in the moment, but we do want the public to know our police department and our communities are moving forward in terms of violent crime,” said Kearney.
Kearney said Cincinnati Police Chief Eliot Isaac will present a report on city crime on Sept. 28 to the Law and Public Safety Committee.
