Several reasons have been proposed: people are outdoors more in the summer, interacting socially rather than watching TV. School's out, so more teenagers with not much to do but hang out and get into fights.
Interestingly the seasonal trend is just as strong in warm states as cold states suggesting that it's more about school than temperature.
