Thunder Bay Police Awash in Crime

Police today are participating in the launch of a new program to combat hate crime in the city. 

The campaign is designed to both increase awareness of hate crimes in the city, but to facilitate reporting of hate crimes.

Crime in Thunder Bay is an issue of concern to everyone. 

To see what is happening in your neighbourhood, you can use the Crime Map.

Crime Mapping lets you, and of course the police track areas of crime and see how best to deploy resources. For homeowners, setting in place a crime prevention program can help keep you and your family safer.

The crime map is interactive, and allows you to see what happened in your area, and offers details.
