Assault accounts for 308 of Medicine Hat's 11,660 open-data incident records in 2026, or 2.6% of the city total. That puts assault fourth among nine categories. The 2026 figure is a year-to-date total through July, not a 60-day map window. The 2025 count of 69 and the 2026 count are both drawn from an archive that begins 18 October 2025, so neither is a full calendar year.

This page covers Assault incidents in Medicine Hat, Alberta, using the city's published open-data crime records. The selected period is the 2026 calendar year-to-date window through July, during which the archive contains 308 assault records. Assault accounts for 2.6% of Medicine Hat's 11,660 total incidents across all 9 published categories in the same period. The figures here come from the full archive cut, not the rolling 60-day map layer.
Within the 9-category feed, Assault ranks 4th by count. The published multi-year series shows 69 assault records in 2025 and 308 in 2026, but both windows are partial: 2025 data begins October 18, 2025, and 2026 is year-to-date through July. No year-over-year percentage is published for this category, so the raw difference between the two years should not be read as a clean annual trend.
In Medicine Hat's published open-data feed, Assault is the 4th-largest of 9 categories. The 308 assault records trail the Other category's 10,261 incidents, Mischief's 458, and Fraud's 327. Assault sits above Break and enter, which has 192 records, and Auto theft, which has 60. In this window, only those two categories record fewer incidents. As a share of the city-wide archive, Assault accounts for 2.6% of Medicine Hat's 11,660 total incidents, putting it mid-pack rather than at the top of the category list.
Assault is neither the largest nor the smallest category in Medicine Hat's archive: it ranks 4th of 9 with 308 records in the 2026 year-to-date window, or 2.6% of the city's 11,660 incidents. The category sits closer in size to Fraud (327) than to either Mischief (458) above it or Break and enter (192) below it. The series moves from 69 records in 2025 to 308 in 2026; with 2025 data beginning October 18 and 2026 cut at July, the raw change is driven partly by window length rather than a clean annual trend.
The published archive shows 308 assault records for Medicine Hat in the 2026 year-to-date window through July. That count makes Assault the 4th-largest of the 9 categories in the city's open-data feed and represents 2.6% of the overall 11,660 incidents. These are archive-year figures, not the rolling 60-day map count.
The multi-year series for Assault shows 69 records in 2025 and 308 in 2026, but the windows are not directly comparable: 2025 data begins October 18, 2025, while 2026 is year-to-date through July. No year-over-year percentage has been published for this category, so the gap between 69 and 308 should not be treated as a full-year change.
Assault's 308 records rank 4th among the 9 published categories in Medicine Hat. It trails Other (10,261 incidents), Mischief (458), and Fraud (327), while running ahead of Break and enter (192) and Auto theft (60). Assault's 2.6% share of the city's 11,660 total incidents reflects that mid-pack position.
The 308 figure is the assault count for the full-archive 2026 calendar year-to-date period through July. The 60-day map layer uses the most recent 60 days by occurrence date and covers all categories, so its incident total of 3,947 is both narrower in time and broader in category scope. The category page is built on the annual archive cut.
