Notes
UCR data is compiled directly from National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) submitted from Georgia’s law enforcement agencies. Each offense is either a Group A or Group B offense type. Law enforcement agencies report Group A offenses as part of a NIBRS incident report and are included in these data, but they report only arrest data for Group B offenses and are not included here. Crimes against persons Group A include assault offenses; homicide offenses; kidnapping/abduction; sex offenses, forcible; and sex offenses, nonforcible. Group B includes all other crimes against persons. S: Data Suppressed indicates that there were 4 or fewer events on which rates would be based.
