December 2020 CRIME REPORT

Our area’s crime report is below. This report highlights some of the residential property crimes that occurred in our area last month.

As a reminder, you can check Calls for Service on the website for more timely & comprehensive information at police activity in your area. Remember that not all these calls necessarily mean a crime occurred, they just show the calls that NBPD is getting & responding to. The “Disposition” column will show you how the call was wrapped up.

City-wide Crime Notes from December:

Residential Burglaries were up compared to last year (2019 was an exceptionally low year for residential burglaries). We have seen this trend start picking up again a little, so please take a look at the tips in the “Crime Prevention Topic” below & the attached Home Security Checklist for more ways to “harden the target”.

Burglaries/thefts from vehicles occurred frequently last month hitting both the west & east side of the city. Please remember (& encourage neighbors) to lock your cars & remove everything from your vehicles. Park in well-lit areas or in your personal garage if you have one.

A recent trend of Catalytic Converters being removed from vehicles should also be noted. If you haven’t already, see the Nixle alert from today for more information: https://local.nixle.com/alert/8474334/

Bike Thefts – These are back on the list again. We saw a mixture of cut locks & bikes left unlocked in December. Please remember to:

o Use good quality bike locks – Cable locks are easily cut through - we see it all the time. o Whenever possible, secure your bike to a fixed object in a LOCKED garage or storage

area. o Locked or not - do not leave your bike outside (including on your patio) overnight. o Register your bike at Project529.com.
