The 2008- 2009 Abilene crime stats are out today, and the only thing that stayed the same from the previous year is the number of murders. Property crime saw the biggest jump. A problem police say the public has to team up with them to bring down. Police meanwhile will be introducing a street crimes unit to deal with crime trends and property crimes. As for the violent crimes that also saw an increase, the chief of police says they have a plan for that also. He says nothing too different from 2009, just more focus on the problems.
