*Closed – Handled within Department and released.

Police take many juveniles into custody or arrest them for committing a violation but make no referral to juvenile court and do not file formal charges. In most cases, the juvenile is warned by the police and released, frequently to parents, relatives, or friends. Reporting agencies must enter such cases on line 1-Handled within Department and released on the Police Disposition of Juveniles breakdown on the front page of the pink form. Agencies must also remember to score an arrest on the inside of this form.

*No longer used for new Incidents as of 4/15/2025.
