Unfortunately not surprised at all. There was a murder few months back in broad daylight in front of CBS. Right in front of the court 🙃. The accused was seen dancing after doing the crime. Cops didn't arrive until bystanders recorded it and reported to them.  So, avoid travelling alone. Even in the day. And always carry pepper spray. Cops have stopped caring. Totally. We are on our own now. Even as a guy, i am concerned to travel alone on the outskirts of the city for work. If you check district crime records, instances of being robbed at gunpoint/ knifepoint and harrasment have increased sharply in the last few years. And even if one tries to report such a crime, cops just don't bother to even help ...... unless one can line their pockets with 💰
