In an effort to keep our community members informed, current crime trends will be outlined below after each meeting. In addition, the Calvert County Neighborhood Watch Program has a Facebook page.

Current Crime Trends

  • ONGOING - Calvert County Sheriff's Office encourages residents to call law enforcement if they see anything out of the ordinary or suspicious happening in their community.  A recent call from a resident, saved the life of an elderly person suffering from dementia who had wondered outside during the January 3rd snow storm. 
  • ONGOING - Thefts from vehicles, sheds and barns continue to be a problem in the county. Keep your vehicles, out buildings and homes locked at all times.
  • March 2022
    • Maryland State Police, Barrack "U" shared  information about a meat selling scam in the county.  A company is approaching residents selling meat and asking for payment in cash or check.  Once the purchase is made, the purchaser does not receive the product.  There's been one case in Calvert so far this year.   MSP is  working the case to see if there are other victims. 
    • Calvert County Sheriff's Office reminds everyone to be aware of IRS scams.  In addition, law enforcement reminded everyone that prom and graduation season will be here soon and celebrations/parties will be happening.   If residents should see or know of an underage drinking party, please report it to law enforcement.    The goal is to keep our youth safe and out of harms way. 
  • January 2022 
    • Maryland State Police, Barrack "U" shared  a phone scam where the caller is impersonating a law enforcement officer requesting the victim provide money for a friend/family member to be released from jail.  The caller is asking the victim to meet them with the money.   Callers are very convincing.  Law Enforcement requests that residents contact the local law enforcement ASAP should they receive such a call and never meet anyone you don't know to drop off money.  
    • Maryland State Police shared information about "Airtags" that are being placed on vehicles to track people.  Once known incident in the county.   The driver's iPhone alerted them that they were being tracked.  
    • Overall crime in Calvert County is down.   According to the Calvert County State's Attorney, Calvert has the lowest crime rate in the state. 
    • Surrounding counties are seeing an influx of "ghost guns".  Local law enforcement is tracking this issue.
