Police roadblocks around the country have helped reduce crime in the country.

Police Public Relations Officer Atunaisa Sokomuri said there has been a reduction in crimes like robbery with violence, larceny and vehicle theft.

He said police roadblocks and those manning them have helped investigators arrest 3 men involved in a $53,000 robbery near USP and a $20,000 robbery in Nadi.
