The Santa Cruz Police Department just issued a notice that an attempted homicide went down on the 1700 block of Soquel (between Frederick and Capitola Road) at 1 p.m. today, in which two unnamed suspects -- both black males between 25 and 30 years old -- shot another 25-year-old resident (no description beyond gender given) in the back of the head. He's in stable condition and expected to live. The police are asking for tips on their anonymous hotline, 420-5995. When stuff like this goes down, it always reminds me of the homicide map the Baltimore Sun feels compelled to run on its website. What does it mean when murder statistics are easily visualized by neighborhood, sortable by race and gender, and updated daily? Is this the next weather report?
