PITTSBURGH — Four stabbings, one of them fatal, occurred in downtown Pittsburgh last month. The stabbings have led to calls for action in the city's Central Business District, including by organizations like the Cultural Trust.
In response to the outcry, Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto pushed for more police downtown, and on Friday the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police's Crime Analysis Unit released a comprehensive study of crime in the neighborhood. In the release, the Crime Analysis Unit said they put together the report due to "multiple media inquiries regarding crime statistics in the Central Business District."
