People aren’t reporting the crimes. Lies lies lies bs report

[@xcqematic1]

Robberies went up by 11% while burglaries dropped. This obviously means people stopped reporting burglaries. Lol

[@hppavilionf50]

Down because people have given up on calling the police 🚓

[@frauwolftherehorse]

👍

[@Attmay]

And because people are leaving before they become the next targets.

[@djenkins555]

[@ogloloo]

Crime is down when people stop calling the cops.

Stop taking reports and the crime goes down. That's how the rich towns do it

[@michaelrodriguez7380]

[@middleguy1776]

Down compared to what?

[@MoonChild-po9du]

I think reporters who lie like this should be held accountable A little part of me wished it was true

[@Loveexpressionmachine]

These people are completely out of touch. Hmm, maybe because stopped reporting crime ? I personal know somebody that lives in Oakland they don’t bother to report crime. Not to mention, the brothers from Oakland are going to next door cities to commit crime. I think the criminals ran out of places to burglarize in Oakland.
