September '06 Norwood Police call stats

A monthly feature

In October, we started a regular new feature of publishing the numbers the NPD provides for their total monthly call volume plus some of the more serious incident categories they track. Unfortunately, the report is too lengthy to publish all of the categories.

Total NPD calls:
August: 2,853 = 92 per day = 3.8 per hour
September: 2,688 = 89.6 per day = 3.73 per hour

We aren’t able to format with a chart. The first set of numbers below is for August, and the second set is for September in this partial breakdown by categories of calls:

Auto Accidents: 78-78
Criminal Damage: 58-54
Dom. Violence: 35-34
Fights: 40-42
Burglary: 34-16
Traffic Stops: 298-184

Assault: 20-26
