As a result, officials in Vancouver were stunned as to why the crime rate plummeted during the 2010 Winter Olympic Games.
The figures told the tale, with official Province of British Columbia reports showing huge drops in vehicle theft, violent crime, assaults and property crime compared to the same month of the previous year:
- Property crime down 39%
- Auto theft down 58%
- Serious assaults down 38%
- Violent crime down 23%
More plans are now underway to get the book distributed at several other major sporting events throughout Canada.
