The Arkansas City, Kansas Police Department (PD) requested technical assistance in leveraging crime analysis software to better address property crimes and high rates of traffic accidents in the jurisdiction. Stewart Bruce was selected to fulfill this request and provided onsite evaluation services of existing resources, met with agency personnel and other law enforcement and community stakeholders, and developed a comprehensive final report with recommendations for how the PD can better deploy resources. Mr. Bruce delivered the final report to the PD in July 2017.
Our department has struggled with high property crime rates and high traffic accidents for many years. We have tried to improve on our crime prevention techniques and have been able to make some improvement in the area of property crimes. Our traffic accident rates continue to rise. We are looking to utilize new crime analysis software to help determine where and when to deploy our resources.
