Editing Uniform Crime Reports (section)

=== NIBRS Categories ===
Under the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS), offenses are classified as Group A or Group B offenses.<ref name=":3">{{Cite book |last1=Criminal Justice Information Services Division |url=https://le.fbi.gov/file-repository/nibrs-user-manual-063023.pdf/view |title=2023.0 National Incident-Based Reporting System User Manual |last2=Federal Bureau of Investigation |last3=U.S. Department of Justice |date=June 30, 2023}}</ref> Additionally, Group A offenses can fall into one of three sub-categories: crimes against persons, crimes against property, or crimes against society. 

==== Group A (Offenses & Arrests) ====
Agencies are asked to fill out an incident report for every Group A offense reported to them (or that they otherwise come to know about), regardless of whether an arrest was made.<ref name=":3" /> NIBRS's Group A therefore replaces and expands on the SRS's Part I offenses.
