Number of collisions I in Halton on a downward trend: police @D® some other property. "Those are terrible situations, but they are not armed robberies," said Tanner. Oakville Ward 5 Councilior and Halton police | board member Jeff Knoll said there is a perâ€" | ception in north Oakville that breakâ€"ins to homes are on the increase. Such an increase is not reflected in the statisâ€" tics provided by Halton police, which shows breakâ€"ins are the lowest they‘ve been in five years. When Knoll asked how this mistaken percepâ€" tion was possible, Tanner said even though the numbers are low, it only takes a few breakâ€"ins in a specific area to raise concerns. "If there is a breakâ€"andâ€"enter on your street, it‘s getting close. It‘s not in some other part of town, it is on your street," said Tanner. "We did have three breakâ€"ins in that area of Oakville in one night where individuals probâ€" ably gained access through unlocked garage doors... When that happens that is going to be the topic of conversation around the neighbourhood." Tanner noted a low crime rate does not mean no crime at all. He pointed out that recently someone enâ€" tered his car and stole sunglasses and some other items. "I would sure like to meet the criminal that Halton Regional Police Chlef Stephen Tanner believes the number of robberies may be drivâ€" ing the violent crime numbers up. O-mhnflcm would break into the police chief‘s car," said Knoll. "That‘s a Darwin Award winner right there." Police received fewer calls for service with 77,198 in 2016 compared to 78,346 in 2015.
