Dallas 2010 murder total is lowest since 1967

The Dallas Morning News reports:
Dallas had the fewest murders in decades in 2010.

The tally was 148 last year, according to the Dallas Police Department. It was the third consecutive year that the city's murder numbers dropped, and the lowest number of murders since 1967.
