HAMPSTEAD — Hampstead Police Department officials reported traffic and criminal statistics for June, including crash investigations, arrests and enforcement activity.

Why it matters: The department’s monthly summary provides a snapshot of local public-safety trends and enforcement activity.

The police chief reported investigators handled 11 crashes in June, one of which was reportable; seven crashes occurred at 42 Circles (intersection or location described in report). Traffic enforcement actions included 84 citations and 127 warnings during the month, and selective enforcement operations produced seven citations and two warnings in a five-hour enforcement window.

Crime reports included motor-vehicle theft (with a stolen trailer attached that was recovered out of state), two fraud reports, one hit-and-run, one violation of a protective order, two trespass incidents, one second-degree assault and two controlled dangerous-substance violations. The chief said two individuals were charged in a previously reported identity-theft case involving losses over $100,000; both suspects are being extradited to Maryland from Texas.

Arrests also included two individuals charged with DUI and other arrests related to warrants. Traffic-related arrests noted unlicensed drivers (3), uninsured drivers (6) and suspended drivers (5). The department also reported community events participation, officer training and two officers certified as bicycle officers.

Ending: The chief invited questions and concluded the monthly report; no new policies or ordinance changes were proposed during the briefing.
