    2. 11-2

    3. 11-3 Purpose of Arson Module

    4. 11-4 Use of Arson Module In v5 a fire is considered arson if: Cause of Ignition (Fire Module) = 1 (Intentional) and the Age of Person (Fire Module) is greater than 17 or if the field is blank; or Wildland Module is used (in place of the Fire Module), the Wildland Fire Cause = 7 (Incendiary) and the Age of the Person (Wildland Module) is greater than 17 or if the field is left blank. Arson Module must be completed In v5 a fire is considered arson if: Cause of Ignition (Fire Module) = 1 (Intentional) and the Age of Person (Fire Module) is greater than 17 or if the field is blank; or Wildland Module is used (in place of the Fire Module), the Wildland Fire Cause = 7 (Incendiary) and the Age of the Person (Wildland Module) is greater than 17 or if the field is left blank. Arson Module must be completed

    5. 11-5 Additional Uses of Arson Module The Arson Module may also be used: when the fire is under investigation, or in cases where the cause is undetermined after investigation. to document juvenile-set fires, whether determined to be intentional or not.

    6. 11-6 Arson Defined To unlawfully and intentionally damage, or attempt to damage, any real or personal property by fire or incendiary device.

    7. 11-7 A - Header Information Header information is repeated on all modules . . . In an automated system, this information is entered once and imported into all modules.

    9. 11-9 Definitions ORI is the unique identification number assigned to law enforcement agencies participating in the FBIs Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) system or the National Incident Based Reporting System (NBIRS). FID is a two-character identification number used by departments to submit crime data to UCR/NBIRS gathered by its dependent bureau/agencies. The ORI plus the FID and the incident number provide the necessary uniqueness to avoid the duplication of reported incidents.

    10. 11-10 C - Case Status Identifies the status of the investigation at the time the report was filed.

    11. 11-11 D - Availability of Ignition Source Identifies the availability of the ignition source (including matches and lighters) to the subject.

    12. 11-12 E - Suspected Motivation Factors Indicates the suspected factors that caused the subject(s) to burn, or attempt to burn.

    13. 11-13 F - Apparent Involvement Indicates whether the suspect(s) was motivated to commit the arson act because of involvement in a group or as a means to promote the cause of a group.
