Tirschenreuth sets standards in the fight against crime

The security discussion in the Tirschenreuth district office again was once again characterized by impressive success in the fight against crime this year. The high educational rate of almost 80 % positions the district at the head of Bavaria and underlines the effectiveness of the police work and the trusting relationship with the population.

violent crime declines, but control offenses on the advance

Although the total number of crimes has risen by 4 % to 2,822, Tirschenreuth recorded a pleasant decline of 42.3 % in violent crimes. A particularly encouraging trend that strengthens the citizens' sense of security. This positive effect is partially subdued by increases in violations of the explosive law, the weapons law and the Narcotics Act.

Challenges in the field of Hatespeech and traffic safety

The increased presence of Hatespepech, especially on the Internet, is a growing challenge, while physical attacks on official and mandate bearers are declining. In the traffic sector, the number of traffic accidents increases by 3.6 % to 2,260 cases, whereby it is positive to be noted that alcohol accidents are declining. This is a sign of improved traffic safety and the commitment of the traffic police.

The successful cooperation between the various police units and the Tirschenreuth district office forms the foundation for the positive development in the fight against crime. Citizens are asked to contribute to maintaining security through social control and reporting suspicious. Tirschenreuth once again demonstrates his pioneering role in the effective fight against crime and sets standards for other regions with its high educational quota.
