So far, crime has fallen on the empty streets of most big U.S. cities., including San Francisco, the first major city to order residents to stay at home.

In Chicago, both violent and property crime are slightly below normal levels. In Dallas, violent and property crimes fell last week compared with the previous week.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
