ACCORDING TO CRIME data reported by the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Department, between February 2014 and July 2014, the number of crimes reported per month almost tripled, rising from 141 crimes reported in February to 404 crimes reported in the month of July. Assault, vandalism and burglary topped the list of crimes reported by the Sheriff’s Department during the six months going back to February 2014.

Along with 531 reports of assault, there were 274 reports of vandalism and 36 robberies, one-third of which involved a gun. Those assaults included eight aggravated assaults with attempt to murder, five domestic assaults that included the use of a gun, and 16 non-family assaults that included the use of a gun.

Between February and July 2014, the Washtenaw County Sheriff reported 229 burglaries. Of those 229, 128 were forced entry crimes (no windows or doors were left open) and home invasions. Only 17 percent of the burglaries reported between February and July were no forced entry crimes.

There have been 36 robberies over the past six months, including 12 in which a gun was used (33 percent). Eight of the 36 robberies were street robberies in which a gun was used. Strong arm (the use of force) robberies made up 41 percent of the 36 robberies reported by the Sheriff’s Department.

In comparison, the Dearborn Police Department reported 50 robberies over the same six month period, including four carjackings and 13 robberies in which a gun was used (26 percent). Eight of the 13 were robberies were of people on Dearborn streets. There were three Dearborn bank robberies.

The Washtenaw County Sheriff reported more burglaries over the past six months than did the Dearborn Police (229 and 172, respectively). Like Ann Arbor, in Dearborn the majority of burglaries reported were forced entry home invasions.

In Ann Arbor, there were 33 sex crimes reported between February and July 2014. The Washtenaw County Sheriff reported 45 sex crimes during the same six month period.
