Part I Offenses
"Part I Offenses" refer to serious crimes that are tracked by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as part of the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program. These offenses include violent crimes such as murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault, as well as property crimes like burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson.
These offenses are categorized as the most significant in terms of their impact on communities and public safety. Law enforcement agencies across the United States report data on these crimes, which helps in understanding crime trends and allocating resources effectively.
