*NYC Crime Hits Lowest Level Ever Recorded* New York City had the fewest shootings and murders since the city started keeping records, in the first ten months of this year, the NYPD announced. There were 536 shootings, down from the old record low of 598 last year, and 230 murders, beating the old low of 244 set in 2017. Major crime went down in all five boroughs. Even Staten Island, which already has very little crime, saw its numbers drop too. Citywide, crime dropped 8.6% in October and 6.5% so far this year, the biggest drop in 17 years. Police have taken more than 4,500 illegal guns off the streets this year. Anti-Jewish hate crimes stayed the same as last October at 26, more than half of the city's 45 confirmed hate crimes last month. *_Join the Island Media WhatsApp Status_* https://wa.me/19297271071?text=Subscribe *_Join the Island News and Updates group_* https://chat.whatsapp.com/Bi5MGP3Nx1qJUoVkKmYW5j
