Current
In 2007 there was an increase in crime and gang-related shootings in Omaha. Compared to other major cities, it is still very safe.
The single event with the most fatalities in recent years was due to a lone gunman. On December 5, 2007, a young man with a history of drug abuse and social problems shot at random in Westroads Mall. He wounded six people, killed eight, and killed himself there.

Famous quotes containing the word current:
“Through this broad street, restless ever,
Ebbs and flows a human tide,
Wave on wave a living river;
Wealth and fashion side by side;
Toiler, idler, slave and master, in the same quick current glide.”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
“If the current is right, one can drift to success.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The English language may hold a more disagreeable combination of words than “The doctor will see you now.” I am willing to concede something to the phrase “Have you anything to say before the current is turned on?””
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
