Assessing AI-Generated Safety Perception Scores Using Stockholm’s Street View Images This article investigates what causes an urban environment to be perceived as safe using Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, as the study area. The study integrates AI-generated safety scores from street view images, image segmentation techniques and conventional and crowdsourced data using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and regression models. After accounting for income, crime and other area characteristics, the models reveal that areas with lower safety scores primarily consist of areas with a relatively large percentage of roads in industrial and/or interstitial mixed residential areas. Conversely, higher safety scores are found in large but distinct combinations of buildings, vegetation and open sky, from detached single-family housing to inner city high-density built areas. To enhance safety in an area, good contextual knowledge of the area is fundamental to prioritize interventions in interstitial mixed residential zones where roads and highways may be the dominant feature British Journal of Criminology 22/5/2025 Research article Fuel theft soars as organised crime hits the forecourts Almost £7m of fuel has been stolen from petrol stations in the past five years — but 95 per cent of cases are dropped with no suspect being identified The Times - Subscription at source 22/5/2025 News Nottinghamshire Police removed from enhanced monitoring by watchdog Nottinghamshire Police is no longer placed within an enhanced level of monitoring after His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) removed it from special measures.

The paper highlighted the dangerous nature of police work as it specifically relates to mortality level in the line of duty, risky job descriptions, and experiences about hazards associated with the work. Human factor theory was used to explain the paper as it relates to work environment, hazards, or injuries. The study adopted cross-sectional survey design. Purposive and accidental sampling processes were used to select 528 police personnel across ranks. Instruments used were questionnaire which was self-administered within a period of 8 weeks. Leading questions veer toward police officers’ mortality in the line of duty, levels of insecurity faced by policemen on their job, hazardous aspects of police duties, and nature of police checkpoints in Nigeria. Findings from the study showed that killing of policemen in the line of duty is high—over 75% of the officers knew at least three of their colleagues who had been killed in line of duty.
