3 mins read

The Emeryville Crime Report for June includes 168 total crimes (down from 194 in May or -13%). As typical, Auto Burglaries and Petty Thefts encompassed a bulk of all crimes committed in our city (in fact 67.8%). The EPD is also providing a chart in their reports that allows you to easily compare crime for the month to the previous year. The chart shows a dramatic drop in DUI’s and Vandalism but a sharp increase in felonies.
