Notes:
For financial and other reasons
some local police agencies are not able to report arrest
data to the Uniform Crime Reporting Program. The table
above ranks the reporting agencies with the most marijuana
arrests
by the arrest rate for marijuana possession.
The population listing in the
table refers to the coverage population of the local police
agency. University police stations, many divisions of the state police (SP), and some other agencies
do not have applicable coverage populations that are reported
along with arrest data reported to the UCR program. Consequently
arrest rates per 100,000 population can not be calculated
and reported for these agencies and they are not included
in the above rankings.
Other drug crimes refers to
drug-related offenses that to no include marijuana. These
include sales and possession offenses involving the following
catefories of drugs:
Opiates/Cocaine:
This category includes opium, cocaine, and their derivatives.
Opiate derivatives include, for example, morphine, heroin,
and codeine. Cocaine derivative include crack cocaine.
Synthetic Narcotics:
This category includes manufactured narcotics and includes,
for example, Demerol , methadone, and Oxycontin.
Other Drugs:
This category includes dangerous non-narcotic drugs and
includes, for example, barbiturates, benzedrine, LSD, methamphetamine,
and PCP.
Violent crimes include murder,
rape, robbery, and aggravated assault.
Property crimes include burglary,
larceny-theft, motor-vehicle theft, and arson.
