My Top Story Week 11

Woman Found Dead In San Pedro Harbor

Yesterday, a woman was found dead off the coast of a beach in San Pedro. Police said that they found her body floating in the water. It isnt known yet if this was intentional, or an accident, or even a murder, but the news of this story alarms me. My parents were born and raised in san pedro..it used to be a town of very low crime and violence. Lately, over the past ten years or so, the city has been on a downward spiral. the crime rates are raising rapidly and nobody is talking about it. This story is shocking, and a terrible tragedy but i think it brings awareness to an issue that needs to be talked about. This story was not very well covered, which disappoints me. I hope that there is more coverage about the crime taking place in san pedro.
