US Homicide Rate on Track for Century-Low
Health
— Jul 23, 2026
A Council on Criminal Justice report shows homicide rates fell about 18% in the first half of 2026 vs 2025 across 30 to 36 cities, potentially the lowest national rate since 1900, though some cities like Salt Lake City diverged with increases in other crime categories.

World
— Jul 23, 2026
Two Jacksonville shootings dominate the latest safety crimes: a May pool-table dispute at New Neighborhood Tavern led to a bar shooting with two suspects, Dennis Williams and Antoinette Upshaw, in custody, and a separate Westside domestic dispute left multiple roommates shot, with two men dead and the alleged shooter dead by an apparent self-inflicted gunshot in what investigators describe as a domestic murder‑suicide. Additional reporting confirms another domestic incident on the Westside resulted in one dead and two injured with the shooter later taking his own life, underscoring a troubling pattern of bar and domestic gun violence in the area.
