Brå: Youth robberies continue to decrease
In 2022, the number of notifications was at the lowest level since 2016, according to figures from Brå.
The gloomy trend from 2015 to 2018, when reports of robberies against people under the age of 18 more than doubled, thus appears to have reversed, TT reports.
Last year, 1,428 robberies against people under the age of 18 were reported, a decrease of over 40 percent compared to the peak in 2019.
When the increase slowed in 2020, the pandemic was given as a reason for the trend break. However, since the restrictions were lifted, the number of notifications has continued to decrease.
– Young people were not out and at school in the same way, so every now and then it definitely contributed. But since then it has continued to drop, and there are certainly other explanations than the pandemic, says Sara Jonsson, investigator at Brå.
