Update on Stapleton homicide, Taylor Swift wrap-up, Cold Crush Denver Crimes

Update on Stapleton homicide, Taylor Swift wrap-up, Cold Crush

The Denver Crimes Thursday August 17, 2017 email newsletter.

This email is in your inbox because it's Thursday, and Thursday is the day of the Denver Post Crimes email newsletter.

What's new this week? Glad you asked. In an effort to make the crime pages less like a wall of text, now each crime has a separate page listing the reported crimes there from the last 12 months (example: recent hit and runs in Denver). That's not all that's new — I put in some more work on the Denver neighborhood crime maps, and the maps are more configurable and shareable. Rather than dump a giant list of links in your inbox right now, that part of the newsletter's at the bottom.

And now, the news.
