Statistics: Growing crime in Virginia's Tysons Corner area since Silver Line opened

Tysons Corner, Va. (ABC7) — Since the Silver Line opened nearly two years ago, it has delivered as promised, many visitors to Tysons Corner.
But all the added traffic has also created significant problems.
"With more people also comes more calls for service and more crime," Lieutenant Chuck Riddle said.
Lieutenant Riddle is with the Tysons Urban Team, established in 2013 to respond to the urbanization of the area. He says a consistent and growing crime is people grabbing expensive items from stores in the mall--shirts, pants, an Xbox and fleeing.
"...and simply run right out and headed towards the train," Lieutenant Riddle said.
Between 2014 and 2015, the Tysons Urban Team recorded a 58 percent increase in felonies and a 34 percent increase in misdemeanors, and the trend is continuing in 2016.
Fairfax Police are also seeing an increase in out-of-state organized retail crime groups hitting the malls at Tysons from New York, Michigan, Illinois and beyond. Last month the Urban Team busted 3 suspects from Florida accused of taking $76 thousand dollars in high-end clothing and accessories from stores at Tysons Corner Mall.
Lieutenant Riddle says battling the overall spike in theft will depend on retailers keeping a close eye on theft and calling police the moment crime happens.
"And to have more officers to be able to staff at least the Tysons Corner area to help combat the retail crime seven days a week," said Lieutenant Riddle.
Despite the increase in property crimes and fraud like credit card theft, police have seen no increase in violent crimes against people in Tysons, and they hope to keep it that way.

LOL yes Lieutenant, more cops parked in cruisers talking to each other and eating jelly beans outside the mall will help the problem...

Won't be long before big chains close their stores due to losses. Then the downward spiral will begin. Bye bye Tysons Corner Mall.

The level of criminal stupidity must be on the rise too. Using metro to make a getaway seems like an awfully dumb idea. You might have to wait 20 minutes for a train to show up, and anyone pursuing you knows exactly where it's going.

That's what happens with urbanization. Time to get off your butts cops and solve some crimes.
McLean under reports crime, as I suspect many towns do. Didn't hear a peep about a driver from Lost Dog Cafe on Anderson Rd being held up for $40 a few weeks ago. Happened on Friday or Saturday night at about 8pm. Guy brandished a weapon and robbed a driver in the back of the store. Place was crawling with cops and a helicopter. I heard they got the guy. The day before the 711 on Chain Bridge was robbed and that was all over the news.

This is the same reason Georgetown didn't want the metro.
THEY came anyway.
Virginia residents have the right to carry so carry.
Or shop on Amazon

Same thing happened at Pentagon City mall.
Any mall that has Metro access will have problems.
I won't go into detail, but let's just say certain undesirable demographics pour in

Well, what is any of that going to do to stop or curtail current criminal activity by black males?
Let's do the best we can to solve the problem, not whine about what shouldn't have happened 200 yrs. ago.
Typical SJW

You would think so.
But, I don't know
Metro cops don't seem to be the best and the brightest.

Same thing happened in Montgomery County after the Red Line opened, and the same thing happened in College Park and Greenbelt after the Green Line opened.
