I don't think I'll be downsizing my EDC this summer, no matter how hot it gets.A particularly violent summer contributed to the spike in shootings — a more than 70 percent increase — with 210 people shot in the city in 2011 compared with 121 shot in 2010.
Through March 27 of this year, the shooting rate has more than doubled, with 48 people shot, including four homicides, up from 19 people shot in the first three months of last year, with one homicide.
