Crockett police report: 16 officers, 447 calls for service in November
Summary
City police presented November statistics: 16 officers logged 3,199 hours, 447 calls for service, 8 traffic crashes, 26 arrests and 337 citations; council questioned a rise in thefts and was told many were shoplifting cases.
The police department presented its November manpower and incident report to the Crockett City Council.
The unnamed police representative told the council the department had 16 officers who worked 3,199 hours and responded to 447 calls for service in November. The report listed 8 investigated traffic accidents, 26 arrests, 337 traffic citations issued, 567 completed reports and 23 alarm calls (19 of which were false). "A lot of those come from Walmart, shoplifting cases," the presenter said when asked about thefts and noted most were class C thefts unless a suspect had a prior conviction.
Council members asked follow-up questions about theft levels and whether increases were concentrated in residential areas; the presenter replied thefts were generally retail shoplifting rather than residential burglaries. The council thanked the presenter for the report; no formal action was taken on the item.
