Crime is Down is Costa Mesa-Great News!

From the July 23 edition of "From the Mesa" from the City Manager
PART 1 CRIME STATISTICS DOWN


"The police department reports that Part 1 Crimes through June of 2010 are down 12% from the same time period in 2009. Part 1 Crimes are the most serious offenses, including sexual assault, murder, robbery, burglary, theft, aggravated and simple assault and stolen vehicles. We measure these statistics each month and we will closely monitor them to see how the recent reduction in the workforce may affect them."(Chris Shawkey, Police Department)
