Crime maps for Salem, Roanoke County updated through Nov. 16
We've just updated our Roanoke Valley crime map with the latest offenses from Salem and Roanoke County -- and Roanoke, as well. The data includes offenses through Nov. 16.
Last week Salem police reported four larcenies, one burglary and one aggravated assault.
In western Roanoke County, police have reported one larceny.
Also, the Salem Police Department provides more detailed information than other localities -- so in addition to the Roanoke Valley crime map, we have a more detailed Salem crime map you can search, as well.
Follow the links above and you can see where they were and what they were. Our data delivery editor, Matt Chittum, has more information how you can use the searchable crime maps. A special bonus this week: We've not only updated the Salem crime database with the most recent crimes, we've extended it backwards as well. Matt explains more here. Who would have guessed there were more than 500 felonies in Salem for the year?
Also on our Datasphere collection of searchable data: The top football recruits in Virginia, and where they're going.
