Public Safety Update and Strategic Collaborative Efforts Crime Trends
• Rates for homicide (-13%), aggravated assault involving a firearm (-10%), robbery (-35%), burglary (-47%), and auto theft (-40%) have all decreased when compared to the year-to-date stats in 2024. Rates for all of the above are also lower when compared to the three-year average.
Community Partnerships
• We continued to build close relationships with our various neighborhood/business districts to further abate crime and the fear of crime through both enforcement and non-enforcement efforts.
• Our Community Resource Vehicle was deployed in Chinatown during Chinese New Year, helping to abate both violent and property crimes.
Area 1- Acting Captain Steve Toribio
Community Partnerships
• Through collaboration with the Uptown Downtown Oakland Community Benefit Districts, we have leveraged Uptown
Downtown technology to expedite the acquisition and processing of video evidence, leading to suspect identification and subsequent criminal arrests.
• Partnering with various district ambassador groups has improved community-police communication, allowing for more efficient abatement of criminal activity and quality-of-life issues.
Interdepartmental Collaboration
• Working with our Community Resource Officers, Foot Patrol Unit, Motors Division, and Ceasefire Section, we have engaged in targeted enforcement and conducted special operations across the Area 1 to address a variety of crime, including gang violence.

01 October 2024, to 31 March, 2025
16 Area 2- Captain Aaron Smith
Public Safety Update and Strategic Collaborative Efforts • Area 2 experienced increases in crimes against our businesses and their patrons in the final quarter of 2024. Using detailed crime data, paired with collaborative work with our residents, business partners, business improvement districts, OPD has worked to diminish these crimes, thereby enhancing public safety.
• This work continues by leveraging the use of technology, like the recovering of video from high quality surveillance cameras in the Business Improvement Districts and neighborhoods, Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), and working closely with other City partners like OakDOT, Public Works, The Department of Violence Prevention and the Encampment Management Team. • Internal OPD partners include Criminal Investigations Division, the Real Time Crime Operations Center (RTOC) and the Crime Guns Intelligence Center.
Area 2- Captain Aaron Smith
Public Safety Update and Strategic Collaborative Efforts • Crime Trends Overview:
• Homicide: There has been an increase in our homicides year over year.
All loss of human life is tragic and unacceptable. For Area 2, we have seen 4 additional homicides compared to this same time last year. A mass shooting that occurred in January contributed to this increase, where two people were murdered.
• As the Area 2 Captain, I have worked with the Homicide Section, Ceasefire, and the Crime Gun Intelligence Center on each homicide and theses interdepartmental partners are working diligently to solve these crimes.
• Commercial Burglaries: During the reporting period, commercial burglaries have decreased 55%, from 230 this time last year incidents to 104 to date. This is as a direct result of strategically redeploying our resources based on crime data and educating our business and retails partners on effective crime prevention.
Area 2- Captain Aaron Smith
Public Safety Update and Strategic Collaborative Efforts Crime Trends Overview:
• Residential Burglaries: During this reporting period, there has been an increase in residential burglary by 16%. Based on the crime data, we believe this is potentially part of a series. As such, I’ve worked closely with the Criminal Investigations Division (Burglary)
• Robberies: During this reporting period, there has been a 40% decrease in robberies. I believe this reduction reflects the effective use of crime data, deploying resources based on said data, and working closely with the Real Time Crime Operations Center and the Criminal Investigations Division (Robbery) to rapidly apprehend those responsible for these robberies.

21 Area 3- Captain Alan Yu
Public Safety Update and Strategic Collaborative Efforts • We remain committed to a comprehensive and collaborative approach to reducing gun-related violence, robberies, and human trafficking in our community. Through close partnerships with the Department of Violence Prevention, Department of Transportation, Vice Unit, U.S.
Marshals, FBI Task Force, and community stakeholders, we continue to implement intelligence-led policing strategies focused on enhancing public safety.
• Crime Trends Overview:
• Homicides: During the reporting period, homicides decreased by 33%, from 9 incidents to 6, reflecting progress in our violence reduction efforts.
• Robberies: Robberies experienced a significant 45% decrease over the same six-month period, indicating the effectiveness of targeted enforcement and community-based strategies below.
Area 3- Captain Alan Yu
Public Safety Update and Strategic Collaborative Efforts • Focused Enforcement Initiatives: Community Resource Officers (CROs) remain actively engaged in combating human trafficking and street-level prostitution—both of which are closely linked to incidents of robbery and gun violence. These efforts are essential in addressing root causes and enhancing overall neighborhood safety.
• Addressing Gambling-Related Violence: Illicit gambling establishments continue to contribute to violent crime in the area. CROs have executed search warrants at multiple
locations, leading to the recovery of over 30 firearms. We are working closely with the City Attorney’s Office to hold property owners accountable and eliminate these high-risk operations from our neighborhoods

This report is hierarchy based. Crime totals reflect one offense (the most severe) per incident.
These statistics are drawn from the Oakland Police Dept. database. They are unaudited and not used to figure the crime numbers reported to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program. This report is run by the date the crimes occurred. Statistics can be affected by late reporting, the geocoding process, or the reclassification or unfounding of crimes. Because crime reporting and data entry can run behind, all crimes may not be recorded.
