Key Findings
Recorded incidents of Robbery, Extortion & Hijacking offences were up by 26% or 531 to 2,601 between 2022 and 2023, driven mostly a rise in Blackmail or Extortion and Robbery from the Person offences.
Crime incidents involving Theft & Related offences were up by 12% or by 8,169 to 74,144 incidents over the full year. Nearly half (46%) of the increase was due to a growing number of incidents of Theft from Shops.
Recorded incidents of Homicide & Related offences were down by 19% to 65 incidents over the year. Most of this decrease was accounted for by a fall in the number incidents classed as Murder offences.
