Killeen city leaders to create committee with mission to prevent crimes and last updated 2021-03-15 23:52:34-04 KILLEEN, TX â In 2020, Killeen saw 31 homicides, nearly double the amount of murders from the year before. At the start of 2021, the community was outraged after a Killeen man was killed by a Killeen PD officer during a mental health call. In a time where calls for reform are being heard from coast to coast, Central Texas voices are also joining the chorus for change. âWhen youâre there with that family and you see tears coming down, thatâs a totally different aspect when it comes to it. Somebodyâs father passed away. Somebodyâs son passed,â said DeAndre Little with Brothers Against Community Crime.
