Violent crime numbers in Washington have soared upwards despite a nationwide decline in crime, according to an FBI national crime data report — but the new data doesn’t show the full picture

The murder rate in Washington today is higher than that of Bogotá, Colombia; Mexico City, or some of the places that you hear about as being the worst places on Earth. It’s much higher,” Trump said.

A man wanted in a fatal stabbing in Longview, Wash., was arrested in Los Angeles on Tuesday after authorities found his vehicle in Calabasas and launched a manhunt.

Residents across Washington have different takes on crime in their communities. Overwhelmingly, however, people opposed President Trump's takeover of the city with federal agents and National Guard troops.

The hunt for the Washington state murder suspect ended Tuesday with Los Angeles Police Department officers arresting Alexander Lee Rogers, after it was reported Monday that his car was found abandoned in Calabasas.

The Trump administration on Friday reversed course and agreed to leave the Washington, D.C., police chief in control of the department, while Attorney General Pam Bondi, in a new memo, directed the District’s police to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement regardless of any city law.
