About this data
This page displays published incident counts for Montreal across the single date of Latest day (2026-08-26). Sourced from the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) open data portal, these records capture 24 total incidents documented by police on this exact occurrence day. Tracking daily municipal police disclosures provides transparent public visibility into local police reporting patterns across the city's 34 neighbourhood police districts.
Headline figures represent this specific 24-hour occurrence date rather than an annual total or year-to-date summary. By comparison, the rolling interactive map window encompasses 3,514 incidents over 60 days. Users should also note that Montreal's open-data map feed plots specific property and person incidents but excludes assault, which the SPVM publishes separately through its monthly crime bilan reports. Reviewing single-day records alongside broader multi-day datasets helps establish clear context for recent community police activity.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for the headline Latest day (2026-08-26) total, as a single calendar date cannot be compared annually. Long-term perspective is available through the full-archive calendar dataset, where complete years show an 8.3% decrease between 2024 and 2025, dropping from 26,684 incidents to 24,467 incidents. These complete calendar-year figures are separate from the current daily record and the 13,422 dated records logged in 2026. The 2026 calendar year remains open and incomplete, so its counts cannot be treated as a full annual total.
