Jim – thank you for your e-mail.

I encourage everyone to fill out a police report for everything that happens. Graffiti, your garden tools stolen, your car window smashed... So much crime is not reported and my previous citizen reports never had case numbers assigned.

I think we all might be aghast to find out the extend of crime around us. As we all know “quality of life crime” is not taken serious including car thefts and burglaries. We need to bring the crime statistics in line with reality so we are no longer mocked by being told “this is just our perception”
