* All of the rapes reported in 2006 were committed by suspects known to the victims excluding one that was determined to be unfounded.

**69 involved the use or threat of a firearm: 45 involved the use of other weapon types: and 89 were strong-arm.

***The increase in aggravated assault may have been partly due to a change in California Crime Indez reporting practices, but also the number reported in 2005 was the least reported in the last ten years and less than half the yearly average.

****374 involved forced entry.  249 involved no force at all and 45 were attempts only.

*****The increase in arsons reported in 2006 involved small fires such as trash fires and a significant number were part of a rash of dumpster fires - none resulting in substantial property damage.
