This map is neither affiliated with any police department, nor Google. The locations of the reported crimes are submitted to The Gazette by area departments and are compiled into a database by The Gazette.

It is important to remember the data is reported crimes, not necessarily crimes in which arrests occur or charges are adjudicated.

Increasing the number of parameters you include in your search will limit the results.

The address search does not require a complete street address, and can be searched by entering a street name. The search will not match partial block numbers, however, so it’s best to search by street name.

Clicking on the marker will reveal information about what crime was reported in that area.

The zoom in feature is located on the left of the map. Moving the bar upward will zoom in on the map.
