Crime Statistics for Oak Bay

The Support Services Section of the Oak Bay Police Department provides accurate statistics on this site. However, these monthly summary statistics are subject to change or may differ slightly from the previous month's data due to:

• periodic enhancements to our Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system;
• late reporting of crime incidents;
• charges that have been investigated and reclassified as unfounded;
• reclassification of Uniformed Crime Reporting (UCR) offences; or
• reclassification of an offence while an investigation is ongoing. For example, a vehicle may be reported as stolen but ended up being borrowed by a family member.

These considerations must be taken into account when comparing statistics presented, and account for inconsistencies that may be identified. The most recent data published will reflect these changes.

We will be posting monthly reports in the near future.
