FBI crime data updated to reflect increase in violence in 2022, expert John Lott says
Crime and data expert John Lott spoke to Fox News Digital regarding how the FBI updated its violent crime stats for 2022, showing an increase in violent crimes, not a decrease.
An 18-year-old man was shot and killed during a drive-by shooting in Detroit on Monday afternoon, while another young man was injured in the same tragic incident, according to police.
The Detroit Police Department said the two young men were victims of a drive-by shooting, with the 18-year-old dying from his wounds and a 19-year-old being hospitalized and in stable condition.
Police said the shooting happened at about 12:30 p.m. on Monday, outside an apartment complex near the corner of Fenelon Street and Nevada Avenue, on the east side of Detroit.
It was unclear whether the two victims lived in the apartment complex.

"What we do know now is that a vehicle did drive through the complex and opened fire on these individuals," Detroit Police Commander Rebecca McKay told reporters during a press conference.
No arrests have been made in connection to the shooting.

Still, McKay said investigators continue to search for suspects while also trying to determine a motive for the shooting.
"Our prayers and our condolences go out to the families," McKay said. "As with any crime that happens in the City of Detroit, we need the community to help us. If you see something, say something. Just know that when we receive information, we follow up on every lead."
