If someone dies in the commission of another crime, its a homicide. Yet vehicular homicides are not added to the homicide count in #Philadelphia, despite there being 33 so far this year. Can any police officials advise me why?

In Philadelphia, military aged males living in the city's top 10% most violent zip codes also faced a risk of fatal firearm violence the same or greater than the risks faced by soldiers deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan; in some places the death risk was almost double that of war.
