In Major Cities PointsTo Expansion of Gang Activity\n\nMany major cities are experi-encing the end of a decade-long de- cline in violent crime,and all point to the expansion of gang activity asa contributing factor  \nCrimeincreaseshavebeensmall for most cities,but the reversein direction is sparking concern.  \nThe most serious incidents arein Cincinnati,which has heen in thegrip of a violent crime wave sincethree days of riots in April.Shoot-ing incidents have risen 600 percentand 93 people have been killed orwounded in four months.  \nBut Cincinnati is not alone.Boston,Las Vegas,Los Angelesand New Orleans all report in-creases in violent crimes from ayear ago.In an ironic twist,crime iscontinuing to decline in Baltimore,Chicago,Dallas and Houston,butgang warfare is on the rise.  \nIn Chicago,two people havebeen shot to death and threewounded in four weeks because of aturf war between the Gangster Dis-ciples and Mickey Cobras that hasspilled into the homes of peoplewithout connection to either gang.  \nIn another Chicago area notedfor drugs and gangs,an execution-style triple homicide included aneight-months pregnant woman.  \nA Memorial Day shooting in Baltimore that involved gangs leftone person shot dead and 11 in-jured.In later exchanges,three peo-ple have died and an assassinationattemptagainsta gangmember'sgirlfriend left her badly wounded.  \nA federal indictment indicatesthe Memorial Day shooting is anescalation of violence between rivalgangs.  \nLos Angeles may be dealingwith the most severe problems sincePolice Chief Bernard Parks dis-banded the anti-gang units to cooldown an evidence-tampering scan-dal.Gang-related murders have in-creased 23 percent in 2001 follow-ing a year in which 331 personsdied in gang incidents.  \nThe LAPD estimates the cityhas more than 100,000 individuals-involved in about 1,300 gangs.  \nWhile black gangs are battlingfor drug turf in Los Angeles,His-panic gangs are engaged in hostili-ties for the sake of family grudgesand guarding territory.  \nViolent crime in New Orleansincreased almost 4 percent in thefirst six months of 2001 and almost11 percent in the second quarter.compared with the same periods in2000.Police point to gang warfare.  \nBoston police estimate 3,500ex-offenders completed their prisonsentences this year and returned tothe streets.With scant job opportu-nities,many are reuniting with theirformer gangs for drug dealing androbbery.  \nBoston police have increasedgun seizures by 12 percent from ayear ago.Officials said the rise inguns on the streets raises concernsthat gangs may be rearming after adecade of declining weapons of-fenses.  \nMetropolitan Police Chief Charles Ramsey estimatesWashington will need more than$28 million tor security againstdemonstrators planning to protestthe trade and monetary policies offinance ministers attending theannual meeting of the InternationalMonetary Fund and the World Bankin September.  \nRamsey said the city would alsoseek reinforcements from police inother jurisdictions to avoid the typesof violence that erupted in Canadaand Italy at meetings of trade andfinance ministers earlier this year.
