However, if the comparison is between September 2020 (6,615 complaints for this crime) and October 2020 (7,275 complaints), a significant increase is seen in the last 60 days.
To this is added that last October there were increases in personal injuries (2.4%) and vehicle theft (11%). Others crimes they have dropped, but experts attribute it to the prolonged quarantine.
Homicide, for example, had an increase of 1.5% between January and October compared to the previous year. In that period of 2019 there were 823 violent deaths in the city and in 2020 there were 835. Ciudad Bolívar, Kennedy and Suba are the most affected localities.
