- [19 Mar 2010]NEW CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED WITH TOUGH MESSAGE: VIOLENT BEHAVIOUR IN COVENTRY WON'T BE TOLERATED
Overall crime in Coventry continues to fall and this contributes to the city being a great place for people to live, visit and invest. Figures continue to show that people feel confident about the way the police, local authority and other agencies work together to reduce anti-social behaviour. Total recorded crime has reduced by 8.8% over the last 12 months and 23.4% over the last 3 years. However, violent crime is still a priority for the Community Safety Partnership and this behaviour in public places and in households is still too high, accounting for a quarter of ALL crime in the City. Much of this behaviour, including aggression, assault and physical injuries is alcohol fuelled and will no longer be tolerated.
