Exclusive Premium Statistic
To access all Premium Statistics, you need a paid Statista Account
Due to the FBI's transition to a new crime reporting system in 2021, only 11,794 of 18,806 law enforcement agencies in the U.S. reported crime data to the FBI. As a result, figures may not accurately reflect the total number of cargo theft incidents in each state. States where no data is shown does not suggest no cargo theft occurred as some states did not report data.
Cargo theft offenses include robbery, extortion/blackmail, burglary/breaking and entering, theft from building, theft from motor vehicle, motor vehicle theft, false pretenses/swindle/confidence game, credit card/automated teller machine fraud, impersonation, wire fraud, embezzlement, bribery, and all other larceny.
