The data provided in this dataset is preliminary in nature and may have not been investigated by a detective at the time of download. The data is therefore subject to change after a complete investigation. This data represents only calls for police service where a police incident report was taken. Due to the variations in local laws and ordinances involving crimes across the nation, whether another agency utilizes Uniform Crime Report (UCR) or National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) guidelines, and the results learned after an official investigation, comparisons should not be made between the statistics generated with this dataset to any other official police reports. Totals in the database may vary considerably from official totals following the investigation and final categorization of a crime. Therefore, the data should not be used for comparisons with Uniform Crime Report or other summary statistics.Data is broken out by year into separate CSV files. Note the file grouping by year is based on the crime's Date Reported (not the Date Occurred).Older cases found in the 2003 data are indicative of cold case research. Older cases are entered into the Police database system and tracked but dates and times of the original case are maintained.Data may also be viewed off-site in map form for just the last 6 months on communitycrimemap.comData Dictionary: Field Name Field Description Incident Number the number associated with either the incident or used as reference to store the items in our evidence rooms Date Reported the date the incident was reported to LMPD Date Occurred the date the incident actually occurred Badge ID Badge ID of responding Officer Offense Classification NIBRS Reporting category for the criminal act committed Offense Code Name NIBRS Reporting code for the criminal act committed NIBRS_CODE the code that follows the guidelines of the National Incident Based Reporting System.
