Crime is falling
It’s right here in blue and white
All the work the police, our partners and local communities have been doing to protect people who live, work or travel in Warwickshire is paying off – here are the facts….
 |
Crime has fallen for three years running In the last three years, crime has fallen by 19% - 8,500 fewer crimes committed** |
 |
Violent crime is down by 1/5 Violent crime was reduced by 21% last year the biggest reduction of any force in the country – which means many less people were injured by others* |
 |
392 fewer homes broken into The number of homes broken into has fallen by 14% in three years – that’s 392 fewer break-ins** |
 |
1,482 less vehicles stolen or broken into Compared to 2006/7, 1,482 fewer vehicles were stolen or broken into in 2008/9 |
What makes this so encouraging is that it’s not just the police achieving this success – it’s because our partners and local communities are getting involved too.
