The city of Miami experienced its first seven-week period without a single homicide since 1957 — thanks to its coronavirus lockdown, according to a report Friday. There were also no homicides during a six-week period for
the first time since 1960.

Not one person was slaughtered in the Magic City between February 17 and April 12 — a total of seven weeks and six days, CBS News reported.

That streak ended after two recent homicide reports, according to WFOR-TV.

“We can say that it’s due to our police high visibility, attributed with the pandemic and the stay at home order,” a Miami Police Department spokesperson told CBS News.

That’s the longest homicide-free stretch the city has seen in 63 years. In 1957, the city went 9 weeks and 3 days without any reported homicides. In 1960, it experienced a stretch of 6 weeks and 5 days.

To slow the spread of coronavirus, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez declared a state of emergency on March 12 and issued the stay-at-home order.

Other violent crimes have also plunged in Miami, as well as in other
cities, according to CBS News. In Baltimore, common assaults dropped 34 percent amid the quarantine, and in Los Angeles homicides decreased 21 percent.

In the Big Apple, major felonies fell 17 percent between March 16 and
March 22, the week Mayor Bill de Blasio ordered schools to close to
prevent the spread of contagion.

And they were trying to tell us that kids would be abuse by parents, as
if the schools and teachers and other kids don't abuse them when at school.
