Crime is down--way, way, down.

This past summer, two men sexually assaulted seven women in and around the U-M campus. A rash of burglaries last year enraged folks on the near northwest side. And just a few weeks ago, a thief or thieves broke into four cars in Gallup Park and stole three purses, two cell phones, an iPad, and physical therapy equipment--and what kind of depraved person steals physical therapy equipment?

Government, business, environment, the U-M, and more.
