Decreases in homicides and carjackings led the way as Prince George’s crime rates continue to significantly decline this year, county officials said Tuesday.

Violent crime has dropped 14 percent in the first nine months of this year, compared to the same time in 2005, and property crime has shrunk 13 percent, which officials said were the largest decreases in the state.
