Keystone Cops: Short, Not So Sweet
Keystone Cops is a daily look at crime, police, public safety and drug news. Homicide totals are unofficial. • Police are probing murders in Southwest and Northeast Philly. [Inquirer] • The mother and grandmother of Carlos Petty testified he was at home watching TV instead of shooting a Tastykake driver. Ahh, attempted murder trials in Philadelphia. [Daily News] • A man in Camden got 10 years for shooting a two-year-old. He fired the gun randomly “to impress his friends.” [Inquirer] • A city police officer has been charged with assault stemming from a 2005 arrest. [Inky] Yeah, there’s not even any funny crime today. Alas. |

Wait, yesterday there were 35 murders. Today, police are investigating murders in the Northeast and Southwest, but there are only 36 murders. Did some thugs kill a guy, resuscitate him, then drive across the city to kill him again?
