Detroit has always had high crime rates. Back in the 70's we stayed in a moyel that had bullet holes in the walls, stayed in the same place in the 90's and the walls were new but still had bullet holes in em! Philly is worse and obviously NYC and LA lead the pack. But here in Indy it's just crazy, it's not a place that has high crime but there is sometyhing major daily now, murder or robbery, robberies are way up with two or three a day that are news worthy. And it's hitting the surrounding counties just as bad as the crooks think it's easier to hit there as the cops are less likely to get them....wrong! Our jail is full.

Yup, it's good to hear the photogs were OK, but it makes you think twice when going to a fire.
