Each jurisdiction submits monthly reports to the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which collects and reports crime offense data for the Nation as Part I and Part II crimes. This is essential to maintain the uniformity and consistency of data nationwide. The Waupaca Police Department recorded 19 Part I Crimes (see below for details) for the month of MARCH 2016. The Part II offenses encompass all other crime classifications outside those defined as Part I. It should be noted that this may not reflect all Part I Crimes for the month due to continuing investigations. • Murder/Non-Negligent – the willful (non-negligent) killing of one human being by another. • Forcible Rape – the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will. • Robbery – the taking or attempting to take anything of value from the care, custody, or control of a person or persons by force or threat of force or violence and/or by putting the victim in fear. • Assault(s) – an unlawful attack by one person upon another for the purpose of inflicting severe or aggravated bodily injury. This type of assault usually is accompanied by the use of a weapon or by means likely to produce death or great bodily harm. • Burglary – the unlawful entry of a structure to commit a felony or a theft. • Larceny/Theft – the unlawful taking, carrying, leading, or riding away of property from the possession or constructive possession of another. Motor Vehicle Theft is not included. All theft and attempted thefts are counted. • Motor Vehicle Thefts – the theft or attempted theft of a motor vehicle. A motor vehicle is classified as a self-propelled vehicle that runs on land surface and not on rails. • Arson – any willful or malicious burning or attempt to burn, with or without intent to defraud, a dwelling house, public building, motor vehicle or aircraft, personal property of another, etc.

shown on the right side of the chart. For the month of MARCH, $3,989 of property was reported
stolen, $637 was recovered.
The Waupaca Police Department records every call an officer responds to in addition to all self initiated activity, i.e., traffic stops, directed patrols, building checks, and concentrated patrols to name a few. In addition, WPD collects monthly data related to all arrests including criminal, ordinance and warrant arrests. These offenses typically included offenses such as disorderly conduct, battery, theft, drug and alcohol violations, and drunken driving offenses. The chart below depicts this data in graphical form. The solid (blue) bar depicts the actual number of monthly arrests, with the numerical data shown on the left side of the chart, while the RED bar depicts the actual number of calls and service activity per month with the numerical data shown on the right side of the chart. The following chart shows a yearly comparison of calls.
Juvenile arrests are documented separately from adult arrests as required by the State and Federal Reporting requirements. Below is a listing of the monthly juvenile arrests.

Traffic enforcement is the most recognizable and universal police function and for many citizens this may be the only contact they have with a police officer. The primary purpose of traffic enforcement is to ensure compliance with local and state regulations and to reduce the likelihood of a crash. The average citizen is more likely to be involved in a traffic crash than be a victim of a crime. The charts below depict the actual number of traffic citations and warning issued by the Waupaca Police Department, along with a percentage breakdown on the types of violations cited.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Domestic abuse is a pattern of coercive tactics that are used to gain and maintain power and control in an ongoing, familiar relationship. Generally, several forms of abuse, such as psychological, emotional, physical, sexual and/or economic, are used in combination. Under the domestic abuse laws of Wisconsin, the abuse must involve people who have a domestic relationship. People have a domestic relationship if they are married, divorced, roommates, former roommates, parents to a common child, expecting a child in common, or are related by blood or marriage. Mandatory arrests result if:
• The officer has reason to believe that one of the parties is committing or has committed domestic abuse, and the abuse constitutes criminal action; and
• Either the officer has reason to believe that the domestic abuse is likely to continue, or there is evidence of physical injury to the alleged victim.
Additionally, if an officer receives a report of domestic abuse that includes intentional infliction of physical pain, physical injury, or illness within 28 days of the date that such abuse occurred, the officer is required to arrest the alleged abuser.

The Waupaca Police Department is required under Wisconsin State Statute Chapter 19 to provide access to all public records under its control and the State has established a policy which reads “All persons are entitled to the
greatest possible information regarding the affairs of government and the official acts of those….who represent
them”. Each request requires a detailed analysis to determine if the record can be released to the public. The Wisconsin Supreme Court in Hathaway v. Green Bay School Dist., 1984, cited in Nichols v. Bennett, 1996 established what is commonly known as the HATHAWAY TEST, and states, in effect, that all records are open to public inspection unless there is a specific exception stated in law, or unless there is an overriding public interest in keeping the public record confidential. The police department receives requests for records in many ways, including written, faxed submissions, email and verbally. Below is a listing of the activity involving record requests.
