Chief constable cautious following annual report
The police's success shouldn't be based solely on the number of crimes reported to them.
The view of Chief Constable Gary Roberts, who's been speaking following the release of his latest annual report.
Almost 2,200 crimes were recorded between 1 April 2016 and 31 March 2017, the period the report covers.
That's an 11 per cent increase on the previous year.
The chief constable says the stats really don't tell the whole story:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
People urged to make alternative arrangements to get home
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
30-year-old told he'd made 'extremely foolish choices'
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
The Steam Packet Company says it's due to an earlier delay from Heysham
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
Decision made by management due to reduced demand
