*** The uptick — most taking place in the North Minneapolis area — *** But here's the little secret: This year's homicide surge in Minneapolis is not a surge, when you look at it with a long-term lens. It is actually a return to normal. ***

If there is a constant wrinkle to the city's homicide trend, it is this: The bulk of cases involve black males younger than 30 dealing dope, involved with gangs and with easy access to handguns. ***

Note that the sidebar with the most FACTUAL information is missing from the PPD web page. It is in the printed version (so save it).

It might be a good idea to give Ruben Rosario a "pat on the back." AND go to the Comments section on the web page and complain about the deliberate omission of the FACTS set out in the sidebar.

Yup. I wasn't at all a fan of how he covered the Minnesota Strike Force Gang, but this is very good, and should be praised.
