description The security challenges faced by smart cities are attracting more attention from more people. Criminal activities and disasters can have a significant impact on the stability of a city, resulting in a loss of safety and property for its residents. Therefore, predicting the occurrence of urban events in advance is of utmost importance. However, current methods fail to consider the impact of road information on the distribution of cases and the fusion of information at different scales. In order to solve the above problems, an urban spatiotemporal event prediction method based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) and road feature fusion network (FFN) named CNN-rFFN is proposed in this paper. The method is divided into two stages: The first stage constructs feature map and structure of CNN then selects the optimal feature map and number of CNN layers. The second stage extracts urban road network information using multiscale convolution and incorporates the extracted road network feature information into the CNN. Some comparison experiments are conducted on the 2018–2019 urban patrol events dataset in Zhengzhou City, China. The CNN-rFFN method has an R<sup>2</sup> value of 0.9430, which is higher than the CNN, CNN-LSTM, Dilated-CNN, ResNet, and ST-ResNet algorithms. The experimental results demonstrate that the CNN-rFFN method has better performance than other methods.
