In 2010, Calgary recorded the lowest number of homicides since 2003.
Fewer lives lost gave investigators more time to focus on unsolved files.
Homicide Staff Sgt. Rick Tuza said there were 14 homicides in 2010, compared with 21 the previous year.
Police numbers show the last time the city recorded fewer than 14 killings was in 2003 when there were just 10.
I'm not sure on the numbers, but I don't recall the gangs having such a quiet year in a long time. Good to see there was only 14 murders in a city so big.

Edmonton has 27 murders in the same time, but that's not to bad for a third world city.
