Chicago leaders optimistic after city saw 0 homicides over Memorial Day weekend – NBC5 (Chicago)

However, concerns are rising that the pendulum could shift in the wrong direction as the billions in federal COVID relief money the city was able to spend on those initiatives have dried up. "Resources are finite and it causes us to make some really difficult decisions as to what and where should money be invested,” Andre said.

There were still over 33 shootings over Memorial Day. Just because no one died doesn’t mean the streets are safer, just that EMS and ERs are saving some lives that previously would have been lost.
