Shootings Don’t Take Weekends Off In Baltimore

While uploading data this weekend the SpotCrime team noticed an interesting trend in Baltimore crime patterns. It is a known fact that the City of Baltimore is no stranger to gun violence. Below is a map containing all incidents of shootings from September 2009 up to yesterday Sunday, November the 15th. In total 273 have occurred since September 1st.

This is a map containing shootings from Monday November 9th to Friday November 13th:

There is a total of 6 shootings. 1 on Monday. 1 on Wednesday. 2 on Thursday. 2 on Friday.
Below is a map containing the shootings for Saturday and Sunday:

There are a total of 7 shootings for a 2 day period. Through this comparison we are able to deduct that gun violence is more prevalent in the Baltimore area during weekends; although any reasons we can give are merely speculative.

As always, SpotCrime provides free crime alerts by email, text messages and through the SpotCrime iPhone application for Baltimore. Know your neighborhood, stay safe with SpotCrime.com.
