I wonder if the sheriff has changed the designation for assault?

Yup. A few weeks ago I posted about the noticeable increase in assaults. No one replied to my post then, but it's now clear that others have also noticed this sad trend.

Van, totally agree! We had one across the street from us a couple of weeks ago. Lots of law enforcement. It was so disturbing.

Van

MrsB it is unnerving when its not close by but even more so when its so close.

Geez, Van, that’s unnerving. Seems like there are a lot of assault reports. So sad 😞

fire truck and paramedic just went up the street I'm assuming for the assault victim on Ridgecrest. Anyone know anything more?
