The Theft page aggregates all reported theft incidents in Wingham, Ontario that are recorded in the municipal open‑data feed for the full calendar year 2018. This selected period is defined as a complete year, using the city’s archived records rather than the rolling 60‑day map window, so the count reflects every incident filed during that twelve‑month span. The dataset captures ten distinct theft reports for the year.
During 2018 the city logged ten theft incidents. Those ten reports account for 7.2% of all 138 crimes documented for the same period, placing theft as the second‑most common category among the six crime types tracked for Wingham. While the ‘Other’ category dominates with 116 incidents, theft exceeds the counts for Mischief (4), Assault (3), Auto theft (3) and Break and enter (2), highlighting its relative prominence despite the modest absolute number.
Within Wingham’s crime profile for 2018, theft ranks second out of six categories, trailing only the ‘Other’ category, which records 116 incidents. With ten theft incidents, it outnumbers Mischief (four incidents), Assault (three), Auto theft (three) and Break and enter (two). This ranking reflects theft’s position as a notable but not dominant offence, capturing 7.2% of the city’s total crime count of 138. The distribution underscores that while the majority of recorded crimes fall under the broad ‘Other’ label, theft remains a distinct and frequently reported category.
Theft stands out as the only category besides ‘Other’ that reaches double‑digit counts in Wingham’s 2018 report, yet it represents just over one‑tenth of the city’s overall crime tally. Its rank of second‑most common highlights a modest but persistent presence, especially as it surpasses more serious offences such as assault and auto theft. With no year‑over‑year series beyond the single 2018 entry, no trend can be discerned, leaving the ten incidents as a snapshot of that year’s theft activity.
