By Senior Lead Officer Matthew Kirk
SLO Matthew Kirk’s report is for two weeks this time due to a slight delay. He apologized for the late arrival due to issues that were beyond his control. The listing of crimes is larger than normal, but it is for two weeks rather than the standard one week period, which means the numbers will be higher without necessarily meaning a large uptick in crime in general.
For example, there were three burglaries from February 9 to February 16 and another three from February 17 to February 24, which is below normal per week.
However, there were upticks in the same week for crimes such as grand theft auto and theft. Some of those crimes occurred on the same day in the same general time frame, which might suggest that a suspect committed more than one crime of a similar nature on the same day.
