Few juveniles were arrested for violent crime In 2003, there were 273 arrests for Violent Crime Index offenses for every 100,000 youth between 10 and 17 years of age. If each of these arrests involved a different juvenile (which is unlikely), then no more than 1 in every 360 persons ages 10–17 was arrested for a Violent Crime Index offense in 2003, or about one-third of 1% of all juveniles ages 10–17 living in the U.S.
