But the overall crime rate fell by 0.
7,696, there is a crime in every 100,000 people in Victoria.
The acting deputy commissioner for Victoria Police, Jack Briney, said it was difficult to judge whether these figures reflected an increase in domestic violence or a greater willingness to report.
"Until we get to the point where we think we 've solved the problem, we still have a long way to go," he said . ".
"At some stage, maybe two to three years, we'll start to see a plateau and go down, but it's hard to see the crystal ball exactly as accurately as it might happen.
Mr. Blayney said that 11 criminal acts were added to follow-up, harassment and threats.
7%, the number of offences against orders increased by 48. 1 per cent.
"We see inappropriate use of electronic media, social media, mobile technology to harass, threaten people and make their lives difficult," he said . ".

Related issues, broken relationships and decisions people make in retaliation for each other.
Mr. Blayney said 8.
The increase in sexual offences is due in part to the Commission of the royal child sexual abuse agency.
"We believe that some of this historical report has something to do with the Royal Commission, especially in the figures in Ballarat, where sexual assault reports have increased significantly, he said.
"It gives encouragement and confidence to some community members who have been victims in the past to come forward and report.
CSA chief statistician Fiona Dowsley told ABC 774 Melbourne television that it was the first time the overall crime rate has fallen since 2011.
"We have an upward trend in our crime rate and have actually paused for a while, so we can only wait and see if this will continue and become a trend," she said.
There have been nine fewer crimes of robbery.
3%, and disorderly and offensive sex also fell sharply.
Among some useful information for homeowners, the data also shows that burglary is most likely between noon on Friday and 6: 00 pm.

Melbourne is the state's most criminal City of every 100,000 residents, but it fell nearly 5 percentage points from last year.
The next local government area with the highest crime rate is latbu in southern Victoria.
Yarra in East, Melbournenorth.
Horsham and Port Phillip are among the top five, with the crime rate rising by 31 percentage points per population.
MS Dowsley said that it is difficult to get the exact number of Melbourne due to the number of people passing.
"The population growth rate in Melbourne is very high because its resident population is estimated to be relatively low," she said . ".
"We calculate based on how many people live in a region, and it is clear that there are a lot more people moving through Melbourne than those who live there.
"So when we calculate the rate, it looks very high, and again, if you have a very small area and see a slight change in the number, the rate moves a lot.
