Abstract
Initial tables present data on State offense data and trends for violent and property crimes. Offenses by jurisdiction type and clearance rates are also shown. Various statistics, including weapons use, are presented for serious crimes including murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, auto theft, and arson, followed by sections on crime statistics by county and agency and State arrest data. Total arrests are depicted in terms of age (juvenile and adult), sex, race, and county (juvenile and adult). Finally, drug arrests are analyzed by county and drug type; by area development district and drug type; and by county, agency, sex, and race. Data on full-time municipal police employees is also tabulated.
