Connecticut State Police law enforcement officers grappled with 150 drug equipment violations in 2020, according to the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS).

Of all types of crime tracked by the NIBRS, drug equipment violation was the eighth most popular crime handled by the Connecticut State Police office.

Officers in Connecticut State Police were involved in 5,446 incidents throughout the year.

The NIBRS was designed to provide detail and context around crime stats. Under the previous system, only the most serious crime related to an incident would be logged.

It is used by law enforcement at all levels, from local to federal.
