Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over) reports in Los Angeles

What 17,260 Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over) reports measure

17,260 rows are Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over). LAPD split theft-from-auto by the dollar threshold printed in the category name. This page is the grand (at or above the dollar threshold in the label) slice only.

Burglary-from-vehicle and stolen-vehicle rows are separate. Citing 17,260 as all auto-related crime would mix labels LAPD kept apart. The official published label is "Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over)." LocalCrimeVault does not rewrite that string. The 17,260 figure is a count of incident records, not unique people, not recovered property, and not hospital cases.

How LAPD type labels work on this feed

Every row on the Los Angeles open-data incident extract carries a type field drawn from LAPD crime-code / MO category as published. LocalCrimeVault displays that field as the agency published it. If a report was written as Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over), it stays under that string here even when a reader might use a shorter everyday name. This page does not split the 17,260 rows into subtypes the packet does not contain.

A primary type is not a criminal conviction and is not a UCR hierarchy rule applied after the fact. A single field event can involve more than one offense in the field; the public extract typically exposes one published type per row. Readers comparing Los Angeles to another city should match definitions: other agencies may file similar events under different statute names that never appear in this list.

Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over) as a share of Los Angeles reports

Relative to 400,500 Los Angeles incidents in this extract, 17,260 reports coded Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over) are about 4.3 percent of the city file. That share is a statement about how LAPD labeled the public feed, not a statement about which events matter more to a community. High-volume types dominate tables; rarer types can still be the events residents ask about first.

Keep the denominator in view: 4.3 percent of the indexed city total is not 4.3 percent of all harm in Los Angeles, and it is not a crime rate. Rates need a population or exposure denominator that this packet does not include.

Reports, not convictions

A Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over) row means a report was taken and coded. It does not mean a prosecutor filed a charge, a judge entered a finding, or a person was identified. Treating 17,260 as a conviction tally would overstate legal outcomes and understate how much volume in a big-city feed never reaches court. The respectful use of this page is statistical: how large is this label relative to the 400,500 Los Angeles incidents in the index.

Los Angeles Police Department publishes the underlying incidents through LA Open Data. LocalCrimeVault indexes that feed. If the agency later updates a record, the public count can move. This page describes the extract as harvested, not a forecast and not a neighborhood safety score.

How to read the Theft From Motor Vehicle - Grand ($950.01 And Over) table

The type hub lists the 17,260 rows with the fields LAPD shares publicly: date, coarse location, and related attributes. Block ranges are intentionally coarse. They are not street-number addresses, and they are not proof that a named business or resident was involved. Sort and filter the table; do not treat the headline as a story.

Nothing in the 17,260 count tells you clearance, restitution, or whether property was recovered. Those outcomes are outside this extract. If a filter reduces the table, you have left the headline on purpose.

Where to go next in the Los Angeles data

Use the Los Angeles type hub for the live table of these 17,260 rows. The city-wide Los Angeles hub places this label beside the rest of the published mix so the 4.3 percent share is visible in context. A cross-city view of the same type slug exists for readers who need the label outside Los Angeles; definitions still follow each agency's feed, not a recode by LocalCrimeVault.

If you are documenting a method, record the extract and the 17,260 / 400,500 pair. Open-data crime files are living tables. A later harvest can add late-submitted reports or drop rows the agency has sealed or corrected, which is expected for a public incident feed rather than a frozen annual report.
