Crime Stories Hot on Patch

It was another busy week in Concord last week, with breaking news, political stories, police and fire posts, and other stuff seen only on Patch.

There were a number of hot crime stories that made up most of the Top 10. However, two stories about Downtown Concord also made the list. Paul Brogan’s latest blog post about downtown and a follow-up story about a Belmont woman pleading guilty to a theft charge, just missed the top stories this week.

Here are the top stories and posts for the week June 7, to June 13, not including poll questions.
