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

Officers in St. Clair Shores were involved in 1,472 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.
