LAPD Chief Michel Moore said homicides fell by 5% in 2022.
Homicides in Los Angeles fell from 402 in 2021 to 382 last year, a 5% decrease, Police Chief Michel Moore said Tuesday.
"It's our hope that as people see those victims, they recognize a life that was lost and the devastation of an entire family," Moore said. "That will help our communities provide their most crucial resource -- their voice, and help us understand those responsible for this gun violence.
Department data indicated that the LAPD's Operations South Bureau, which includes 77th Street, Harbor, Southeast and Southwest stations, had the largest decrease in homicides, about 140 cases in 2022 from 167 in 2021, or about a 16% decrease. Moore said the department seized 8,427 firearms in 2022, 234 fewer than the 8,661 firearms seized in 2021. In addition, firearm seizures outside the city limits increased by 76, or 25%, from 307 in 2021.
Deputy Chief Kris Pitcher said the high clearance rate is a result of collaboration among various officers and programs. Pitcher also said any homicide that is not immediately solved is brought before a committee, which includes commanding officers of the Robbery Homicide Division, expert investigators and forensic staff, to make sure "no stone is left unturned."
