Rivers Police Service has compiled its monthly statistics report and the three Criminal Code categories saw a total of seven cases, versus 11 recorded in January. Some of this may be due to fewer days in this shortest month of the year, but we like to believe it’s because citizens are more well behaved. Only one violent crime (assault) was lodged while we had three in January (two assault and one sexual offence). There were four property crimes, all at theft over $5,000; January had five thefts and one property damage. The “other crimes” were consistent with January at two cases; both months they were for various other crimes such as breaches, public mischief, harassing phone calls, etc.
