Crime Trends

During the first two months of the year, things have been relatively quiet on 36 beat.  In regards to Part One offenses (those crimes reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigations for statistical analysis purposes) the numbers of incidents reported are down for many of the categories:

Rapes – None reported this year -100% decrease

Aggravated Assaults – 3 reported this year - 40% decrease

Residential Burglaries – 17 incidents reported this year – 43.3% decrease

Non-Residential Burglary – 2 incidents reported this year – 71.4% decrease

Larceny  -  33 incidents reported this year -  26.7% decrease

 

The only Part One categories that have seen an increase in the number of incidents are:

Robbery – 4 incidents reported – 300% increase

Auto Thefts – 9 incidents reported – 50% increase

None of the robberies appear to be related and many of the incidents have unusual circumstances surrounding the incidents.  Of the nine auto thefts, only 5 of them involved an unknown suspect.   

The thing to remember is that, like it or not, crime is going to happen.  That is why it is important to remember to always practice crime prevention by:

 Locking doors and windows both day and night, minimize the ability for someone standing outside to see inside your home, leaving garage doors down, lock doors and windows of vehicles, do not keep personal property inside a vehicle - especially in open view and most importantly ---watch for and call 911 if suspicious activity is observed in your neighborhood!

Helpful Information About Burglaries!

Residential burglaries do continue to occur on and around the beat. The majority of these incidents occur during daytime/daylight hours.  A lot fo times, the suspects will knock on the front door and when no one responds, they will force open a door or window in the front side or rear of the home. 

The most common items taken are flat panel televisions, video game systems and laptop computers/peripherals.  If you own one of these items, be sure to record the serial numbers and keep them in a safe place.  It would also be helpfull to take photographs of property and especially jewelry.  There have been many instances when the department has recovered stolen property but cannot match it up with burglary victims which results in citizens not getting their property back.  When victims can immediately provide serial numbers on stolen property, it will be entered into a national database.  Pawn slips on every item gets submitted to the police department and checked in this database and other law enforcement agencies will use it to check on property they believe to be stolen.  This can also aid in creating solvability for your case.  

 

Seasonal Crime Tips

As the weather warms up, people will be getting outside more often and start working in their yards.  Please keep in mind that there are criminals out there who specifically look for open garage doors and will steal lawnmowers, weedeaters, tools...even gas from open garages.  Please avoid leaving your garage door open and unattended and help watch our for your neighbors...even during daylight hours.  If you notice a garage door left open, please be neighborly and point it out to them that it is open and that they risk someone stealing something.
