Theft sits behind only the broad "Other" category (550 incidents) in Cobourg's incident distribution. It recorded more than Assault (28), Mischief (12), and Break and enter (4) combined. With 45 incidents against the city's 639 total, Theft accounts for a modest but notable slice of reported activity. Its second-place standing reflects both the catch-all nature of the "Other" grouping and the relative infrequency of violent or property-damage categories in this two-month window.
Theft's second-place ranking in Cobourg is notable mainly for the gap beneath it: the next three categories together total 44 incidents, barely matching Theft alone. The single-year series shows 45 incidents in 2026 with no prior year for comparison, so no trend claim is possible. The dominance of the "Other" category — 550 incidents, or 86% of city totals — dwarfs every named category, making Theft's 7% share look small in absolute terms but relatively prominent among specifically classified incidents.
