Webp 19edited

Trumbull law enforcement officers grappled with 218 crimes against persons in 2020, according to the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS).

This equals 18 per month in 2020.

Crimes against persons include simple assaults, aggravated assaults, intimidations, kidnappings and abductions, fondling offences and rapes.

Of all types of crime tracked by the NIBRS, simple assault was the most popular crime handled by the Trumbull office.

Officers in Trumbull were involved in 1,281 incidents throughout the year.

The NIBRS was designed to provide detail and context around crime stats. Under the previous system, only the most serious crime related to an incident would be logged. If an incident involved a homicide as well as aggravated assault and theft, only a homicide would be recorded in criminal statistics.

It is used by law enforcement at all levels, from local to federal.
