The District Heights Police Department has reported Uniform Crime Report statistics for 2007.  This report shows large decreases in all areas, with the exception of Homicide.  It is also important to note that there were four homicides in District Heights in 2007, but the Prince George's County Police Department took the report, so it is not reflected in our number.  A breakdown of offenses is listed below.
