Sunderland is not in Forest Hill ward. So nothing funny about this vehicle theft.

I still find the figure of zero difficult to comprehend and it is possible that the figure was given in error. But there are a few reasons to believe that crime has gone down in Forest Hill ward over the last few months. Or maybe it is so difficult to report that the figures just look that way (although I have my doubts about this given the need for a crime number to make insurance claims particularly for stolen cars and burglaries).

I'm also aware that these figures directly contradict my claim of zero burglaries in the last three months as there were 2 reported in April in the SE26 area of Forest Hill ward (those figures are the most recent published but the police internal systems do have more up to date numbers - which are often calculated differently due to differences in categorising crime).
