GENERAL COMMENTS ON LOCAL CRIMINAL AND DRUG ACTIVITIES

During the month of April 1974, a total of fifteen persons
were charged with offences under the Narcotic Control and Food and
Drug Acts. All charges were routine, with no large volume of drugs
favolved. The drug situation remains basically the same as the
previous month. : :

the only major crime during the month involved an adult
male who was arrested for raping a teenage girl in the Coquitlam.
area. This parson has been arrested and has also admitted being
responsible for two similar offences in the Squamish area and one
in West Vancouver. .

Burglaries and thefts, in particular thefts from auto-
mobiles located in underground parking lots, still continue to be
a problem. Items being stolen are ones that can be easily disposed
of. :
