The crime reports for the month of July are below. Fortunately, the major crime wave we experienced last July did not recur this year. Although we had a few more serious incidents of robberies, the overall crime rate was fairly normal for what is usually the worst month of the year. Actually, it was a little better than normal. There was a higher than normal number of incidents in the commercial parts of the neighborhood which offset the gains in the residential area. The commercial area typically averages 20 incidents per month, but this month they racked up 30. Continue reading “July 2011 Crime Reports”

June 2011 Crime Reports
We had another fairly light month in crime activity. The problem with auto thefts we saw last month seems to have moved on, none this month. Although we had a typical number of car break-ins, only 4 of those occurred in the neighborhood. The rest occurred in parking lots. There was a robbery in a parking lot near the Dubliner/Grape area. Two women were punched and their property taken while walking to their car. While we occassionally have robberies north of McCommas and south of Belmont, it is very unusual inbetween. I haven’t seen any similar incidents since. Please try to attend the LGNA Fajita Fest on Tuesday July 19th if you can. We’ll meet at Greenland Hills United Methodist Church, Penrose @ Delmar at 7pm. Our Extended Neighborhood Patrol officer will be there to discuss any issues you might have. And feel free to enter the dessert contest if you like, you might win a prize!
