The incident case reports listed are just a sampling of the 24 crime index categories included in the Uniform Crime
Report and selected call classifications as requested by the City Council for tracking, therefore the totals of the
selected categories will not add up to the total number of incidents shown on the last line above.
The police department has been using the LETG Record Management system for over a year now and comparisons
year to year are now reported in the same system, so the comparisons should be vastly similar given the information
is gathered and reported in the same system for each category.
Heat maps as requested by council, are able to be provided through the new RMS system and additional crime
mapping software. Additionally, public access to crime maps was rolled out in June of 2017. Links to the crime maps
are provided on the police department webpage and at www.communitycrimemap.com
Calls for service for the month of January were up over last month and over January of last year
as well. Officers were kept busy, and investigators as well as they investigated a shooting from
December that took hundreds of hours and assistance from several agencies to identify a nd
apprehend the two responsible. The investigation uncovered 13 related crimes in 7 communities
5E
in 3 counties that were all tied to the male suspect. The suspect was charged, and the gun
involved recovered.
The department also spent considerable time planning for super bowl related activities.
