It is important to remember that crime is a social problem and a concern to the entire community.  Efforts of law enforcement are limited to factors within its control.

 

The offenses of murder, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, auto theft, and arson are used to establish an index in the Uniform Crime Reporting Program of the FBI to measure the trend and distribution of crime in the United States. These offenses were selected because, as a group, they represent the most common local crime problem. They are all serious crimes, either by their very nature or due to the volume in which they occur. The offenses of murder, forcible rape, aggravated assault, and robbery make up the violent crime category.
