## Resource

Anchorage is going hard on shoplifting, prosecuting over 230 cases and more than 500 charges since September — a dramatic turnaround from years of dropped cases and store lock-downs. With a rebuilt prosecutor’s office and new tech like real-time camera feeds and instant arrest warrants, cops are catching repeat offenders faster than ever. The goal? Not just more arrests, but smarter, stronger cases that deter theft and tackle root causes like homelessness and addiction through new diversion programs — all to make the city safer and more secure for everyone.
