SIOUX FALLS, S.D.(KELO)- The number of crimes is increasing in Sioux Falls…but the crime rate is not.
That’s the main message delivered this morning by Mayor Paul TenHaken in the city’s annual crime report.
The city has suffered from a string of homicides over recent months, which has people on edge.
But overall, the Mayor and law enforcement officials say per-capita major violent crimes are slightly lower than they were at this time last year.
