Definitions:

NOTE: The crime log classification will not normally match the crime statistics, as the crime log is compiled using the State of Michigan Crimes Code and the crime statistics are required by law to be compiled using the Federal Uniform Crime Reporting Summary Reporting System (SRS) definitions and standards and of National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) definitions as required by the Clery Act.

Incidents are reviewed daily and a determination is made on the correct Clery classification for crime statistic reporting.
