"I pray that this trend continues to decrease for our community. However, not all crime has decreased. According to the DA's Office's report, there has been an increase in weapon arrests. 632 people have been charged with second-degree criminal possession of a weapon in 2024. This was an increase of 32 compared to 2023. NYSP appoints first female commander of Troop A Despite the weapon charges, Doorley did clarify that the number of shootings is down in Monroe County. This is also reflected in the RPD Open Data Portal, which reports there have been 163 shootings with 204 victims in 2024, compared to 2023 which had 248 incidents with 288 victims. "While arrests are up compared to the last year, shootings are down," Doorley said in a statement. "To me, this means that we are successfully removing illegal firearms off the street, often before they are used in a homicide or assault." With these weapon charges, Doorley said there was a 2% increase in weapon suspects being released at arraignment with non-monetary conditions. The amount of bail set at $5,000 or less increased from 32% in 2023 to 50% in 2024. More information about this crime data can be found on RPD's Open Data Portal by clicking here.
