When a Motor Vehicle Theft occurs and additional property is also stolen, if only the additional property is recovered, why is it necessary to fill in Data Element 19?
A11. As of January 1, 1997, this requirement was discontinued. Leaving Data Element 19 blank is permissible. Top of Page Q12. When an arrest is made for an old offense and at the time of apprehension the subject is now a year older, is it correct to leave the original age on the suspect screen, or must the suspect age match the arrestee age? A12. Ages do not have to match for current NIBRS’ edits; however, the national Program would like the offender’s age at the time of the incident to be as accurate as possible. The arrestee’s age should be as of the date of arrest.
