In this area (Pittsburgh area) there is no marked increase in stabbings over firearm attacks. There is however a 28% increase in violent crimes though. The Pittsburgh Violent Crimes Task Force attributes this rise to what they call the expansion of "mini gangs".

Dont ask me what mini gangs are. IMHO they're just dangerous wannabes.

The rise in these crimes seems to be primarily limited to the inner city, and low income areas.
