Don’t you just love the fall? The nights are getting cooler which means we can turn the air conditioner off and crack the windows. If you chose to do this please do not leave them up when you are at work and never open the windows on the first floor, you are only inviting trouble. Unfortunately, we have to always think defensively.
The same crimes are still plaguing our Sector. During the month of September we had 29 thefts from motor vehicles in Jackson Ward and Monroe Ward. The items being stolen are still electronic equipment,(GPS, iPods, laptops). If anyone sees or hears of these types of items being sold on the street, call me so I can forward that information to a Detective.
There were 8 robberies to individuals in Sector 413 last month. Three were cleared with arrests. There were also 2 aggravated assaults in Sector 413; an arrest was made on one of them.
Here is a breakdown on the crimes reported:
