CLEVELAND — On Thursday, Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb outlined the city's plan for summer safety and reducing crime that seems to rise as temperatures do. But in just the two days following that press conference, the city has seen a rash of gun violence, some deadly.

Bibb, on Thursday, addressed the already-rising crime rates that the city has been experiencing leading into the summer season. "It’s a huge, huge worry for me, as well as for my residents, dealing with this crime," Conwell said."Guns everywhere. I mean, everywhere. You have young children—12 and 13-year-olds with guns—and that's not good. They're missing school and they're walking around in the community with guns. That's not good at all."
