Brighton paper reveals eye-opening crime facts

The Brighton Argus has used the the Freedom of Information Act to good effect by gaining access to crime figures in Sussex. The result is a six-part series which began yesterday with the revelation of the stark facts for the past two years, accompanied by a full online breakdown of crimes committed in every district. As the first part of the series notes: "The statistics provide an eye-opening insight into the places we think we know well." (Via Brighton Argus)
