The University of Louisville Police Department faced a busy winter break with numerous theft and burglary cases on campus.
Theft under $500 was up with 15 reported cases this December. One case was a stolen bicycle.
Cases of burglary in the second degree were up from two in 2017 to seven.
According to KRS 511.030, burglary in the second degree is defined as entering or remaining in a dwelling (dorm, apartment, or house). Burglary in the second degree is also a class C felony.
ULPD Chief of Police Gary D. Lewis Jr. said, “charges and classifications are guided by the prosecutors office based on what would be most applicable in court.”
