A Statement From Mayor Victoria Woodards Regarding
Tacoma Police Department's Update on Death of January 15 Shooting Victim
TACOMA, Wash. – "The sorrow felt when a young life is cut short runs both deep and wide. My condolences go out to the victim's family and loved ones, as well as the many others grieving across our entire community. This investigation is active and ongoing and, in the face of tragedy, we will not rest. My Council colleagues and I are working tirelessly with our local, regional and national partners on sensible solutions to address violent crime. This is a priority issue for us in Tacoma, and this is why we have made significant investments in community safety. In the area of youth and young adult violence reduction, the City contracts with 11 local agencies representing 19 programs. The City has increased its youth violence reduction budget by $870,086 in this biennium, which includes $400,000 in grant funding received from the Washington State Department of Commerce to specifically reduce gun violence. This funding supports our shared goal of disrupting cycles of violence before they occur."
