Prince Albert crime ticks down in first six months of 2024
Six months of data alone are not enough to declare an overall drop in crime, but members of the Prince Albert Police Commission were generally happy with numbers from the first six months of this year.
A recent spate of crimes notwithstanding, PAPS took almost 12 per cent fewer calls for service between January and June compared to the previous year.
Chief Patrick Nogier cautioned that those numbers can change, depending on the local situation.
“It’s always an ebb and flow situation where you have peaks and valleys of calls that coming in for service,” he said.
