Part One Crime - Part One crimes consist of eight offenses in the UCR reporting system: murder and non-negligent homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, motor vehicle theft, larceny-theft and arson. These offenses were chosen because they are serious crimes, they occur with regularity in all areas of the country, and they are likely to be reported to police. Castle Rock’s Part One crimes are at a low crime rate per 1,000 population compared to the Benchmark Cities as shown on p. 16.
