Dallas police are investigating two shootings that happened within hours of each other Wednesday, about a mile apart.
This comes as the mayor touted endorsements from police and bragged about violent crime dropping in the city.
Just before 1 a.m. Wednesday, near Ann Arbor and Marsalis in South Oak Cliff, Dallas police said 18-year-old Jacob Ruvalcaba tried to rob a woman who was inside her vehicle and shot her, injuring her. Hours later, less than a mile away, a 14-year-old was shot across the street from South Oak Cliff High School.On the same day, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson tweeted a statement about recent endorsements claiming Dallas has "seen violent crime decrease by double digits over the last two years."
"I don’t feel like it is, every other day, there is a crime. Maybe they are referring to certain areas," she said."There has been crimes in the neighborhood, shopping center, all over the place. So I am not seeing how crimes are down," Hanks said.
