On June 12, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department officially stopped including detailed summaries for each of its blotter entries. The type of calls the department receives is still available as well as the date, time and location of the call. The Sheriff’s Department announced they will be transitioning into an interactive crime map, called Crime Mapping, which will provide residents the type of call, date, time and approximate location.
The map is currently in the works, and could be available in the coming months. Until then, the Dana Point Times has provided some of the calls listed on the blotter with the time, date and location provided.
