Not saying it is not happening more often, but how often you see it reported is not a good indicator. It is just how the news works, there is now heightened interest in that sort of thing so it is reported more often. I do remember such cases from before Covid. Another recent example would be „black person killed by cops“ - even here in Germany the latest case made national news, even though it happened in the US.
