During the months of October and November, according to the Department, Dearborn Police officers arrested more than 40 suspects for crimes that are directly related to “Quality of Life” and “Public Safety” concerns. Chief Ronald Haddad credits the citizens of Dearborn and the tenacious efforts of the department’s officers for the outstanding results.
Since early October, these combined efforts have resulted in six arrests for robbery, 16 arrests for home invasion and breaking and entering, eight arrests for possession of a stolen vehicle, 12 for larceny from vehicles and three for sex-based charges. Many of these perpetrators have been linked to multiple crimes in the Dearborn area. Chief Haddad sent a strong warning to criminals: “If you decide to commit crimes in Dearborn, the vigilance of our citizens and the dedication of our police department will greatly increase your chances of being caught. If you think you got away with a crime, don’t relax, as the vigilance of Dearborn citizens and the dedication and abilities of the Dearborn Police Department may result in a knock on your door in the near future.”
The Department also announced news of a grimmer nature: “On Tuesday, December 8, 2009 at approximately 11:30 pm, the Dearborn Police Department responded to a residence located in the 22000 block of Outer Drive for an individual who had been stabbed. The 31-year-old male victim was transported to Oakwood Hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
The Dearborn Police Department’s initial investigation has lead to the arrest of a 32-year-old male suspect, who also resides in Dearborn. The investigation is on-going, names are being withheld pending further investigation and proper notification of the victim’s relatives.”
Chief Haddad said, “This appears to be an isolated incident between known individuals and Dearborn officers responded effectively in the arrest of a suspect.”

Things are really starting to change in Dearborn...we all really need to start being good neighbors and keeping a watch out, as the police can't be everywhere. I also think it is very important that the police notify residents when there is trouble in the area. I don't want to read about it a week later that my bank was robbed or someone on my block had their home broken into or their car stolen. This has happened to me before and I was mad as hell when I found out. No one ever even bothered to contact me to see if I had seen anything. If we all know, then we can be watchful and hopefully prevent a recurrence; and who knows if you have actually seen something that could help catch the criminals. The only good thing about winter is the colder it is, the less likely the criminals are to be hanging out looking for trouble.
