Agency Statistics
The following pages summarize the crime and arrest statistics reported to the CBI by local law enforcement agencies. If an agency name is not listed, it is because the statistics for that jurisdiction were reported by the respective sheriff’s office.
Caution must be taken not to compare the number of criminal offenses which occurred to the number of individuals arrested for a particular crime. There is not a direct correlation between the number of individuals arrested and the number of offenses reported.
The number of offenses reported is arrived
at by using the Uniform Crime Reporting Summary based hierarchy
rules. Therefore, although multiple offenses may have occurred
in a single incident, only the highest ranking offense is
counted.
The arrest statistics are based on the number of
individuals arrested by a particular agency. An individual
is counted only once each time he/she is arrested.
Remember, several people can be arrested for the
same offense or one person can be arrested on multiple charges.
Therefore, if a person is arrested on multiple charges only the arrest for the most serious charge is counted. The same
rule applies whether the arrestee is an adult or a juvenile.
