Recent reports in East Isles and Lowry Hill were dominated by vehicle-related theft, with a robbery on Humboldt Avenue South and an assault near Lake of the Isles Parkway among the more serious incidents.

This block-by-block rundown is drawn from incident records for East Isles and Lowry Hill compiled from Minneapolis Police 5th Precinct data. Locations are given to the block only; we never name residents, victims, or anyone who has only been charged. As the longer trend in these neighborhoods shows, most of it is property crime rather than violence, much of it tied to cars.
Recent reports include:
27th Street West at East Lake of the Isles Parkway: an assault causing less-than-substantial harm reported June 4.
2400 block of Humboldt Avenue South: a bicycle theft reported June 2.
1500 block of Lagoon Avenue: theft of motor vehicle parts reported June 2.

Vehicle theft, theft from vehicles and theft of catalytic converters and other parts accounted for most of the month's reports, concentrated along Girard, Irving and Humboldt avenues and the Lagoon Avenue corridor near Lake Street.
Residents can file reports through the city's 311 service or directly with the 5th Precinct, and doorbell-camera footage can help officers connect incidents across nearby blocks. Patterns tend to surface only when neighbors report, including incidents that feel too minor to bother with.
