Violent crime trended upwards in Edmonton last year, says new data from police yeg
“It’s our job as police to have a plan that sends a clear message to those perpetrating serious crimes and victimizing some of our city’s most vulnerable: this behaviour won’t be tolerated. This plan is well underway, as we work tirelessly to formalize many new initiatives, reallocate resources to where they are most needed and develop new inter-agency partnerships to address crime, disorder and social issues with the most suitable resources.
Edmonton’s overall violent crime rate rose by 16.5 per cent last year compared to 2021, while the crime severity increased by 5.4 per cent. Police attribute the increase to a rising number of robberies, assaults, and assaults with a weapon causing bodily harm. In 2017, Tout said 2,880 individuals were arrested for 9,903 occurrences of violent crime, and released.
In 2019, the federal government passed Bill C-75, legislation that aimed at reducing judicial delays, modernizing the bail system and reducing the overrepresentation of racialized people in jails.
