Greetings,
During the month of May 2010, violent crime was down 13% and
property crime was down 1%. The most significant crime increases for
this reporting period in Sector 312 were related to Motor Vehicle Theft
(12 stolen automobiles) and All Other Larceny (16 incidents - stolen cell
phones, copper, keys, etc.). Motor Vehicle Theft - Six vehicles were
taken from apartment complexes and three along the Midlothian
Turnpike corridor. Sector 312 officers/detectives are aggressively
working to combat and reduce these incidents of Auto Theft. Officers
will be conducting surveillance, maintaining a visible presence and
working to apprehend those engaged in criminal activity throughout
Sector 312. Officers will be patrolling by foot, bicycle and police vehicle.
Please continue to call us if you observe a suspicious situation/
person. We need everyone’s eyes and ears to help reduce crime and
apprehend offenders. Remember, you can remain anonymous and
suspicious persons will always be treated with dignity and respect by
investigating officers.
