The Menomonee Falls Village Board meeting on July 21, 2025, highlighted significant developments in local law enforcement training and crime statistics for the second quarter of the year.

During the meeting, officials discussed the ongoing training programs for police officers, noting a 7% increase in overall assignments compared to the same period last year. The training included various local and remote sessions, with a focus on advanced skills such as crisis intervention and cyber investigations. A notable upgrade was the transition to a new model of tasers, which required additional training for officers due to changes in functionality.

The meeting also reported a substantial decrease in Group A offenses, which include serious crimes. There was a 47% reduction in these offenses, with specific declines in theft (down 64%) and assaults (down 65%). Year-to-date statistics showed a 14% drop in overall offenses compared to the previous year. However, there was a 15% increase in arrests for lesser offenses, primarily related to truancy and driving violations.

In terms of enforcement activities, the second quarter saw a 5% increase overall, with traffic citations rising by 19%. Traffic crash statistics indicated a slight increase in incidents, but the numbers remained consistent with previous years.

The meeting underscored the ongoing efforts of the Menomonee Falls Police Department to enhance training and improve community safety, reflecting a commitment to reducing crime and maintaining public order.
