In Norway in 1979, the police closed the investigation of about 110,000 crimes, an increase of 4 percent from 1978. About 75 percent of the crimes investigated were larcenies. Aggravated larcenies increased sharply from 1978.
Abstract
Statistics include investigated crimes and provide information about crimes by type of offense, police district, place of offense and year of offense, number of accessories, police decision or recommendation, and number of charges and persons charged. Larceny data show whether the stolen property was wholly or partly recovered. The report includes 7 figures and 48 tables. A description of offenses and a list of publications are appended.
