Crime statistics presented Tuesday by Anchorage Mayor Dan Sullivan and Police Chief Mark Mew show declines in four of seven categories of crime in the city last year, including murder, robbery and theft.

Those decreases mean an overall reduction in crime over the past five years when compared to the previous five years, they said. In 2014, the number of reported crimes totaled 14,136, down by 340 from the previous year.

"It's a good story for Anchorage. It shows crime is trending in the right direction," said Sullivan. "We still have more work to do, obviously."
