I do not know about some countries but the rate of crime in my country has already gotten out of hands. i can't help this situations at all because i don't have such powers and authority but let me tell you what happened to me last year for the very first time i witnessed a home robbery.

some time ago around november last year specifically on the 17th day was when i and my brother had the shocking experience of our lives where we got robbed in our yards at midnight hour. it was just like a dream or a movie to us when it happened. it was not just me and my brother, but the entire lodge was invaded by robbers and so many properties and gadgets got stollen, carttered away by hoodlums and those included my iphones and my that of my brother with our laptops. those were the main items that got taken from us.
Other houses had their televisions and expensive gadgets also taken. it was unbelievable but we are happy no life was lost because the criminals were armed carrying a short pistol and machetes got their faces covered up threatening us at midnight hour around 1 to 2:00am in the morning precisely.
we lost a lot of contacts and outreach but first thing we did was to disable our devices from accessing our bank details as soon as possible in the morning just to be sure no one access our funds through our devices.
It was a great lost for us and it took me almost half a year to recover all what we lost and after recovering, i lost a whole lot of interests in blogging and more.
at first i thought i lost my hive account in that process but thank god i got my Google drive synchronized to the cloud. and that contained my hive logins but despite this, my interest was long gone for a while but thank goodness for life. life was more important than anything else.
i'm happy to find my way back here after a long time and i pray i still find the courage to keep pushing from where i stopped off.
