Greater Sudbury Police have unveiled “Crime Plot”, an on-line map that residents can see where crime has been committed over a 30 day period.

Staff Sgt. Marc Brunette says some of the crimes included on the map include Arson, Assault, Break and Enter, Homicide, Stolen Vehicles, Shoplifting and Robbery.
