New York City and New Yorkers record 12 days of no death record by gun shot, according to CNN. New York City's longest recorded homicide-free ended late Friday night, when a 28-year-old man was shot multiple times just before midnight.
Eric Roman was rushed to a nearby hospital in critical condition with gunshot wounds to his head, hand and leg and died Saturday, according to the NYPD.
New York City had gone 12 days without a homicide, its longest stretch on modern record, police said yesterday Monday.
The last reported homicide was February 1, Super Bowl Sunday, in Upper Manhattan, police said.
That day, police responded to a 911 call about multiple shots being fired and found five individuals with gunshot wounds, the NYPD said. One of those five, Graham Shadale, 28, was pronounced dead at the scene.
New York City's last record for a streak of days without a homicide was 10 days. In 2014, there were no recorded homicides between February 13 and February 22.
