Are You Receiving the Daily Neighborhood Watch Police Report?

If not, you are missing out on keeping up to date with one of our most pressing local concerns. You can subscribe at http://www.annapolis.gov. There have been major changes recently to these daily reports, but here is an excerpt from today's report that I find most interesting, with my emphasis in red:

We have made changes to the Daily Report in an effort to provide readers with significant, current and relevant crime information. The Daily Report will often be shorter for two reasons. First, overall crime has decreased. Total U.C.R. crime was down 15% and total violent crime was down 25% in 2008 when compared to 2007. In simple terms this, thankfully, means there is less crime to report, and we hope to keep it this way.

Secondly, we want our reporting to focus on violent and outside property crime which we consider generally "preventable" and can affect the community at large. We will also provide information on other crimes when we see a pattern develop or when it is of particular community concern.

The Annapolis Police Department will continue to operate in a manner that is forthcoming and transparent. Additional crime data may be found on CrimeReports.com. The men and women of the Annapolis Police Department thank you for your continued support.

Contact Annapolis PD at: apdcommunityservices@annapolis.gov
phone: 410 - 268 - 4141 or 911 in case of an emergency

I think we would all be pleased if this means that one day there will be no news from the police department. My only suggestion is to not use those police acronyms such as "U.C.R.". Chief Pristoop will be our guest at next week's Thursday Sip N' Blog.
