Current Crime Rates/Statistics

• Calls for Service for the Pataskala Police Department include all emergency and non-emergency dispatched calls.  This also includes pick-up calls that officers create themselves through proactive work such as drug and traffic enforcement, and business and welfare checks.  All calls for service are documented through our Call Record reporting system.
• Incident Reports include all incidents that require more documentation than a call record.  Incident reports consist of all crime related activity, either dispatched or created by the officer, and provide detail of an incident that explains the cause for law enforcement action or reason for an investigation.
