- Beat 1925 Crime Update
IS CRIME REALLY INCREASING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD? CAPS officers will report on the number of armed robberies, burglaries, retail thefts, and carjackings committed in our neighborhood since our last meeting in August. We will also examine how those major crimes have changed over 2022 and compare that data with crime data from 2019, the year before the pandemic. Those numbers may surprise you.
