Chron: Violent crime falls, property crime increases (updated)
THE CHRONICLE reports that violent crime is down in Houston through the first half of the year, although property crime continues to be a problem.
Strangely, the online version of the story didn't actually report any hard numbers on crime, just selected percentages (the print version had a graphics box with some numbers, but not as much detail as we'd like). Perhaps the online crew was too busy innovatin' with Twitter to trifle with basic crime reporting.
UPDATE: Bill King sent out a somewhat more detailed analysis of recent crime stats on August 10, but we had been unable to locate the post on his website. It is located here.
