rime statistics qiven for 1985
During the year of I985, the
Warm Springs Police Depart
ment investigated many crimes
reported to the department, and
performed several public service
functions. Listed below are these
statistics, provided by Annette
Kirkwood, Sylvia Maxwell, and
Louella Jackson of the Warm
Springs Police Department
Records Division.
Included in the criminal
offenses are the traffic offenses
investigated by the Police Depart
ment. The total traffic offenses
include both major and minor
traffic offenses.
The public service statistics
reflect calls for service performed
by the Police Department, which
are non-criminal in nature, and
can be considered more public
service oriented.
The "Other" category includes
incidents reported to the Police
Department which arc either
unfounded, or over with prior
to arrival of the responding
officer. Some examples of such
incidents might include prowlers
who have fled the area prior to
officer's arrival, fights which
are over and from which the
participants have disbanded,
drunk drivers who could not be
located, or assists to other agen
cies. The categories shown below
the list of public services per
formed, are the incidents investi
gated by the Police Department
but considered non-criminal in
nature.

offenses (including traffic) inves
tigated by the Police Department
was 5,016. The year-end total of
4,721 for 1985 is 94.12 percent
of the year-end total for 1984.
In the year 1984, the Police
Department investigated average
of 418 criminal offenses per
month. During the year of 1985,
the Police Department investi
gated an average of 393 cases
per month. These figures indicate
that in 1985 the Police Depart
ment investigated six percent
fewer criminal offenses than in
1984.

functions performed by the Police
Department was 3, 1 4 . . The year
end total of 3,158 for 1985 ex
tended the year-end total for
1984 by 17, or .01 percent. In
the year 1984 the Police Depart
ment averaged 262 public service
calls per month. During the
year 1985, the Police Department
performed an average of 263
public service calls per month.
These figures indicate that the
Police Department performed
.01 percent more calls per month
than were performed in 1984.

total value of reported property
stolen or damaged came to
$93,802.04. The total value of
