Property Segment data should only be entered for offenses of Gambling, Kidnapping, and

submit one PROPERTY SEGMENT report for each type of loss/etc. This includes the situation
when all property "Stolen" is "Recovered" and the value of the recovered property is the same.
Two segments would be submitted, one for "Stolen" and the other for "Recovered." The "Value"
of property entered into Data Element 16 must include the total dollar loss/etc. for all of the
VICTIMS.
For example, if there were two victims and each had a bicycle stolen, one costing $100 and the
other $400, the value of the bicycles would be added together, showing $500. Property

Data Element Definitions and Values
Data elements are the data fields used in NIBRS to describe the victims, offenders, arrestees, and
circumstances of criminal incidents and arrests. There are 62 data elements. Some are required
to be reported. Others may be reported at the option of the agency submitting the report.
The data elements and data values listed are used for reporting incidents and arrests involving
Group “A” offenses and for reporting arrests involving Group “B” offenses.
Whether or not a data element is used in only the Group “A” Incident Report or both the Group
“A” Incident Report and the Group “B” Arrest Report is indicated by the following parenthetical
indicators in each data element description:
Used In Indicator
Group “A” Incident Report (only) (A)
Group “A” and “B” Reports (both) (A & B)
WASPC data collection guidelines follow those found in the FBI NIBRS Technical
Specification, Version 3.0, https://ucr.fbi.gov/technical-specifications; the only exceptions are:
Data Element 6: Additional Group A Offense Code 500, Violation of No
Contact/Protection Order
Data Element 8A - Bias Motivation: Additional Data Value 53 = Anti-Sensory Disability
Data Element 9 - Location Type: Data Value 58 = Cyberspace is allowable for the WA
State Offense 500 (Violation of No Contact/Protection Order)
Data Element 12: Gang Involvement indicator is Mandatory
Data Element 53: Domestic Violence Indicator
Data Element 54: Incident Address (for Crime Mapping)
Data Element 55: Incident Address City (for Crime Mapping)
Data Element 56: Incident Address State = WA (for Crime Mapping)
Data Element 57: Incident Address Zip Code (for Crime Mapping)
Data Element 58: Incident Latitude (for Crime Mapping)
Data Element 59: Incident Longitude (for Crime Mapping)
A description of each data element appears on the following pages.
1 - ORI Number, 9 characters (A & B): This is the unique nine-character NCIC Originating
Agency Identifier (ORI) Number that has been assigned to each agency. It must be included in
each Group “A” Incident Report Segment or Group “B” Arrest Report.
2 - Incident Number, 12 characters (A): This is the number assigned by the reporting agency
to each Group “A” Incident Report to uniquely identify an incident, e.g., the Originating Agency
Case (OCA) Number. The number can be up to 12 characters in length. The Incident Number
must be included in each segment of the Group “A” Incident Report.
15
2A - Cargo Theft, 1 character (A): This data element is to be used to indicate whether or not
the incident involved a cargo theft. This data element can only be entered when the incident has
at least one of the following offenses:
All Other Larceny 23H
Bribery 510
Burglary/Breaking & Entering 220
Credit Card/Automatic Teller Machine Fraud 26B
Embezzlement 270
Extortion/Blackmail 210
False Pretenses/Swindle/Confidence Game 26A
Hacking/Computer Invasion 26G
Identity Theft 26F
Impersonation 26C
Motor Vehicle Theft 240
Robbery 120
Theft From Building 23D
Theft From Motor Vehicle 23F
Wire Fraud 26E
Allowed entries (Enter only one):
N = No
Y = Yes
NOTE: If multiple offenses occurred within an incident and one was associated with a cargo
theft, then Y = Yes must be entered.
The definition of Cargo Theft is the criminal taking of any cargo including, but not limited to,
goods, assets, money, or baggage that constitutes, in whole or in part, a commercial shipment of
freight moving in commerce, from any pipeline system, railroad car, motor truck, or other
vehicle, or from any tank or storage facility, station house, platform, or depot, or from any vessel
or wharf, or from any aircraft, air terminal, airport, aircraft terminal or air navigation facility, or
from any intermodal container, intermodal chassis, trailer, container freight station, warehouse,
freight distribution facility, or freight consolidation facility. For purposes of this definition, cargo
shall be deemed as moving in commerce at all points between the point of origin and the final
destination, regardless of any temporary stop while awaiting transshipment or otherwise.
3 - Incident Date/Hour, 11 characters (A): This data element must be included in each Group
“A” Incident Report. It must be used to enter the month, day, year, and hour
(MM/DD/YYYY/HH) when the incident occurred or started or the beginning of the time period
in which it occurred (as appropriate). Military 24-hour time must be used. If the Incident Date is
unknown, the date of the report with the indicator R = Report should be entered. If the Incident
Hour is unknown, the hour should be left blank or the hour can be estimated; however, when
16
Data Element 25 (Type of Victim) = L (Law Enforcement Officer) then Data Element 3
(Incident Date/Hour) must be populated with a valid hour (00-23).
If the incident occurred on or between midnight and 0059, 00 should be entered; if on or between
0100 and 0159, 01 should be entered; if on or between 2300 and 2359, 23 should be entered; etc.
If the incident occurred at exactly midnight, it is to be considered to have occurred at the
beginning of the next day, as if the crime occurred at 1 minute past midnight. Therefore, 00
must be entered for the hour, along with the next day’s date.
4 - Cleared Exceptionally, 1 character (A): This data element must be included in each Group
“A” Incident Report. It is used to indicate whether or not the incident was cleared exceptionally.
If not, N = Not Applicable must be entered. In a multiple-offense incident, the exceptional
clearance of one offense clears the entire incident. An incident cannot be cleared exceptionally if
it was previously or at the same time cleared by an arrest, i.e., if an Arrestee Segment was or is
being submitted.
To clear an offense by exceptional means, all of the following four (4) conditions must be met:
1. The investigation must have clearly and definitely established the identity of at least
one offender.
2. Sufficient probable cause must have been developed to support arresting, charging, and
prosecuting the offender.
3. The exact location of the offender must be known so that an arrest could be made.
4. There must be a reason outside the control of law enforcement which prevents the
arrest, i.e., A through E, below:
Allowed entries (Enter only one):
A = Death of Offender
B = Prosecution Declined (by the prosecutor for other than lack of probable cause)
C = In Custody of Other Jurisdiction
D = Victim Refused to Cooperate (in the prosecution)
E = Juvenile/No Custody (the handling of a juvenile without taking him/her into custody,
but rather by oral or written notice given to the parents or legal guardian in a case
involving a minor offense, such as petty larceny)
N = Not Applicable (not cleared exceptionally)
NOTE: The clearance of an incident should not be confused with closing an investigation.
5 - Exceptional Clearance Date, 8 characters (A): If an incident was cleared by exceptional
means i.e., a code other than N was entered into Data Element 4, the month, day, and year
(MM/DD/YYYY) when the incident was cleared must be entered into this data element.
6 - UCR Offense Code, 3 characters (A & B): This data element must be used to enter the
UCR Offense Codes of the up to ten (10) most serious (as determined by the reporting agency)
Group “A” offenses involved in the incident. There are fifty-three (53) possible Group “A”
Offense Code entries. A separate Offense Segment, containing Data Elements 6 through 13, must
be submitted for each reported Group “A” Offense Code involved in the incident. Only one (1)
17
Offense Segment can be submitted for each reported UCR Offense Code even though there may
have been more than one victim of the crime. At least one (1) Offense Segment must be
included in a Group “A” Incident Report.

Crime Mapping Fields
54 - Incident Address, 30 characters (A) (Optional): For incidents, this is the address where
the incident occurred. The address number and street should both be entered.
When an address is mapped, it will return all possible results for the given address. If more than
one is received by MapPoint, the geocoder will choose the first address on the list. If the address
submitted is an exact match, one result will be returned.
For example, 5401 S 19th St., Hometown, WA or 5401 South 19th St., Hometown, WA returns
one match, and that is the address that will be used. The system recognizes that “South” and “S”
are the same. If the “S” is omitted, it will return all matches for that address including 5401 N
19th St., Hometown, WA, if it exists and the geocoder will choose the first address.
Address suffixes such as Dr., Ave., and St. should be used with caution. If the suffix is incorrect,
the address will not be properly geocoded. If the suffix is omitted, MapPoint will pick the first
address on the list.
55 - Incident Address City, 15 characters (A) (Optional): For incidents, this is the city where
the incident occurred.
56 - Incident Address State, 2 characters (A) (Optional): For incidents, this is the state where
the incident occurred. Although this element is optional, if entered, it should always be WA.
57 - Incident Address Zip Code, 10 characters (A) (Optional): For incidents, this is the zip
code where the incident occurred.
58 - Latitude, 10 characters (A) (Optional): For incidents, this is the latitude based on the
incident location.
59 - Longitude, 10 characters (A) (Optional): For incidents, this is the longitude based on the
incident location.
