I'm guessing this is just a blip, but it'll be interesting to see some long-term numbers: http://www.rugbyadvertiser.co.uk/news/crime/increase-in-violence-in-rugby-town-centre-1-7875427

The way police record these instances worry me. If it suits them the 'downgrade' crimes to hit their targets. Getting accurate information from the police is very difficult as the goal posts are constantly moving.
