DATA FROM THESE 2 YEARS ARE COMPARED WITH REGARD TO BLOOD ALCOHOL CONCENTRATIONS; OFFENDER SEX, AGE, AND PROFESSION; CRIME GROUPS AND GEOGRAPHY; AND THE TIME OF DAY THAT THE CRIME WAS COMMITTED. RESULTS SUGGEST THAT PARTICULAR CRIMES (E.G., BODILY INJURY, RESISTANCE TO ARREST, AND MATERIAL DAMAGES) ARE ALCOHOL-RELATED. THE NUMBER OF ALCOHOL-RELATED CRIMES INCREASED BY 57 PERCENT IN THE 10-YEAR PERIOD (55 PERCENT FOR MEN AND 88 PERCENT FOR WOMEN), WITH RATE FOR GRAND LARCENY, MURDER, AND PERSONAL INJURIES RISING ESPECIALLY RAPIDLY. ALCOHOL-RELATED CRIME RATES GREW IN ALL BLOOD CONCENTRATION GROUPS. THE 31-TO 40-YEAR-OLD GROUP AND JUVENILES UNDER 18 EXHIBITED AN APPRECIABLE INCREASE IN ALCOHOL-RELATED CRIMES FOR BOTH SEXES. THE ALCOHOL TOLERANCE OF YOUNG WOMEN ALMOST EQUALED THAT OF YOUNG MEN. ALCOHOL-RELATED CRIMES WERE MOST COMMON AMONG UNSKILLED WORKERS, ALTHOUGH THE NUMBER OF APPRENTICES AND STUDENTS INVOLVED ALSO ROSE IN THE PERIOD. ALCOHOL-RELATED CRIMES OCCURRED MOST FREQUENTLY IN ENTERTAINMENT AREAS AND IN THE INNER CITY BUT ALSO GREW AT A VERY RAPID RATE IN HOUSING PROJECTS AND NEW HIGH-RISE APARTMENT BUILDINGS. THE RATE OF ALCOHOL-RELATED CRIMES PEAKED IN DECEMBER, ON SATURDAYS, AND BETWEEN 8:00 P.M. AND 2:00 A.M. NOTES, TABLES, AND FIGURES ARE FURNISHED. --IN GERMAN. (KMD)
