Not exactly sure what you were trying to say, but I do know that Columbia SC has a higher murder rate than Chicago.

The media censors their news due to many reasons, probably, but one would be to avoid eliciting racial comments on this forum, but greater would be to please groups that don't want descriptions that fit stereotypes. WRAL will not reveal those groups who pressure them to censor reports.
Strangely, the sex of the offenders and victims are freely given, as are the age range. That's sexism and ageism, if telling the sex is racism.
We do know the color of the car, if that helps you be on the look out when walking about.
I'm against censorship of reporting. I'd like to see follow up reporting to see how successful criminals were in school (grade/course of study/reading level), if their fathers were in the home, age of mother at time of first birth, substance abuse in the home.
With this, we could see what to do to prevent or predict crime.

I've noticed they rarely include the description if it involves race. Political correctness or something.
This is a diservice to the public at large who won't be able to identify an armed robber, who is still armed and might rob and kill someone else.

Because the nationwide media directive is to call them "teens" or "youths"
