Wherever the car burglars were in June and July, they’re back in Greater Rockridge.  Fortunately, crimes against the person and quality of life crimes declined slightly into August in beat 12Y, and property crimes dropped from 19 to 11, but auto-related crimes rose from 26 to 30.  In beat 13X, both types of property crimes increased, from 3 to 7 for ordinary theft and from 2 to 6 for auto-related crime.  Crimes against the person were flat in 13X and quality of life crimes decreased slightly.

Questions about 911?

Details

The speaker at the Greater Rockridge NCPC’s August 9 meeting will be Gina Wong, OPD Communications Dispatcher.  The NCPC has asked her to discuss issues such as:

  • How many calls do they get?  How do they assign call priorities?
  • Staffing and training – what is the timeframe for recruitment and hiring?
  • When you call 911, what do they want to know?  Why do they ask that?  How do they hand off calls for dispatch?
  • What’s the issue with calling 911 from a cell phone?  What is the non-emergency number for?

Ms. Wong will also take questions.  Join us at 7:30 PM on August 9, in the conference room of the Rockridge Library, for this interesting subject.

If May was a slow month for crime in beat 12Y, June has come roaring back, at least for both types of property crime.  Ordinary property crimes roughly doubled, from 8 in May to 17 in June.  Auto related property crimes roughly tripled, from 9 to 28.  Other classes of crime increased only slightly or remained flat.  Beat 13X had a total of 9 reported crimes for the entire month.
