Community activist Corey Teague says violent crime is still a major issue

The city of Paterson is experiencing a decline in violent crime. The mayor says there are two main reasons for the drop: police taking more than 200 guns off the streets and a partnership with community anti-violence groups. Community activist Corey Teague believes a number of incidents may not be included in the city's count because the crimes are committed by police themselves.
