Rochester, New York, has surprisingly recorded just three homicides this year, matching the number of murders in the surrounding suburbs. An in-depth investigation by Chief Investigative Reporter Berkeley Brean revealed this startling parity using data from the Rochester Police Department. While one murder involved a gun in Lyell Avenue, the other was an alleged beating in a downtown high-rise. This investigation highlights how suburban areas are grappling with similar crime levels to urban centers, prompting Rochester to explore different strategies for reducing homicides.
