#Reasons

Reasons in these files are a mix of the freeform strings seen in the earlier data and structured Flock taxonomy entries (e.g. “Assault/Battery Offenses - search”). Both formats appear, sometimes for the same underlying incident type.

“Leo” remains a common reason (46 records, 10.6%), consistent with the earlier dataset where it was the single most-entered reason at 21.1%. “Admin Audit” appears 14 times — a reason type not documented in the previous data; it likely reflects internal reviews rather than operational searches.

90 of 432 records (20.8%) include a formal case number. That is a higher rate than the 4.9% seen in the previously published data, though still leaves nearly 80% of searches linked only to a freeform reason string.

260 of 432 records (60.2%) include a license plate in the search — lower than the 73.7% seen in the earlier dataset.
