Disclaimer
The Ward Crime/Incident Reports for years 2002-2005 have been prepared for review. The report breaks down, by Ward, calls for service that occurred in the City of Manchester. The numbers shown in this report should be considered as "raw data" meaning the numbers represent the calls for service as they were called in. It is not unusual for a call for service to be changed, i.e. called in as a robbery when in fact, by law, it was a burglary.
A call for service is generated several different ways. The following shows the different ways the police department receives a call for service:
- Called in by a citizen
- Walking into Police Headquarters
- Citizen flagging down an officer on the street
- Officer initiated
The following information is provided within this Crime Report:
- Officer response times - This refers to the time it takes an officer to arrive on scene after being dispatched.
- Average time spent on a call - This refers to the time from when the officer arrives on scene to when the officer clears the scene.
- Citizen response time - This refers to the time from when a citizen calls until an officer arrives.
Calls for service are dispatched on a priority basis. For example, an abandoned vehicle is given a low priority and a domestic violence call a high priority. This means that the abandoned vehicle call will wait several minutes longer than the domestic violence call.
