The North Charleston Police Department (NCPD) is pleased to share with the community that there has been a overall decline in both the violent and non-violent crime rates during the first six months of 2026.

This downward trend is a testament to the effective collaboration between our law enforcement officers and the citizens we are committed to serving.
