The Wellesley Police Department recently released some statistics for the last year, reporting some of the police action from 2012 in relation to previous years. 

There were fewer burglaries in Wellesley in the last year, 26 compared to 30 in 2011. Of the 2012 incidents, three were in businesses. Police also made fewer arrests and issued fewer criminal complaints in 2012 than in previous years. Criminal complaints being situations in which police file charges but do not arrest a suspect.

There were fewer calls made to the department than in 2012, although about the same number as in 2010 and 2009. These service calls could be anything from an arrest to a noise complaint to a medical emergency, the Wellesley Police announcement notes. 

The number of written reports saw a sharp increase, as did crashes.

The full stats gathered from the Wellesley Police Department:

Note: E-911 hang-up calls are not the total number of calls, just the number of calls where the caller indicated it was not an emergency, or dispatchers had no contact with the caller.
