Personal/Violent Crimes

Aggravated assault: Unlawfully attacking another person to inflict severe or aggravated bodily injury, usually accompanied by the use of a weapon or by other means likely to produce death or grave bodily harm. Attempted aggravated assault that involves the use or threat of use of a gun, knife or other weapon is included in this crime category because serious personal injury likely would result.

Forcible rape: The "carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will." UCR includes assaults and attempts to commit rape by force or threat of force but excludes statutory rape (without force) and other sex offenses. UCR collects data only on the rape of women.

Murder: Killing a human in a willful and non-negligent manner.

Robbery: Taking or attempting to take anything of value from a person by force or threat of force or violence.

Drug law violations: Violating any local, state or federal drug law that prohibits the possession or sale of specific drugs or drug paraphernalia.
