It is worth reviewing the Law and Order statistics published in the July 13th, 2009 Edition of the Calgary Sun. From my review of these statistics, it appears the occurrence of relatively minor nuicance type offences was higher during Stampede Week than most other weeks throughout the year. However, despite the daily grind of fear mongering by law enforcement officials,
a review of the district by district law enforcement stats should comfort Calgaryians that our City -- though not perfect -- is very safe.
The highlight offence in District One (the downtown) was involved a pushing incident, while the most noteworthy crimes in other districts ranged from stealing sunglasses (district 2), stealing a laptop from a local coffee house (district 3), a bank robbery (district 7) and some kids who started a fire at a local school (district 6). Car prowlings top the list of most prevalent crimes.
