Reactive Arrests The reactive arrest is one of the standard styles which is used to enforce laws
whereby authorities react and respond to any calls and arrest the criminals. In this case, therefore,
police response to any citizen’s complaints and enforce the law accordingly (Wang, 2010). The
main purpose of this form of law enforcement is to prevent any incident that is likely to deterrent
to crime. There is no initiative from the government or any police officer to target any given area or
district, but this operation is majorly triggered by complaints from many citizens. What facilitates
this process normally is the police on patrol and the calls that citizens make to the police offices
(Qi, 2013).

The general deterrent side effects on reactive arrests caused by correlational analysis that is
normally done either with or without temporal orders. The general picture that contributes to such
analysis is the fact that reports come mainly from cities that have less than 10,000 people. On
another side, these findings present a problem as it brings great doubt on even a simple claims of
the general deterrence in the real world. 2 FAILURE TO PUT FOCUS ON ARRESTS OF
HIGHRISK PERSONS, THE EFFECTS OF HIGHER ARREST LEVELS MAY GET LOST
IN THE MANY FACTORS CAUSING CRIME (LUM, 2014).
THE GENERAL CONCEPT IS THAT
MORE ARRESTS REPORTED ARE IN
THE RESPONSE OF OFFENCES OF ANY
KIND, THEN THE LESS THE CRIME
WILL BE REPORTED.
The process that is involved in reactive arrest
organized into different stages in which each
and every stage will represent a certain unique
and useful step in the process in dealing with
the crimes. The first stage is discovery and
response where the crime committed
discovered and the necessary response mechanism initiated. The second stage is the initial
investigation where the patrol officers will carry out their duties in crime scenes. If the perpetrators
are not arrested in the preceding processes, then the case will be selected for a followup
investigation. At any given stage in the process, the case may be closed, and the entire process
terminated depending on certain factors.
Numbers of Police The number of police is the major factor in determining the number of crimes
committed. 2 THERE IS TWO EVIDENCE THAT TRIES TO EXPLAIN THIS THEORY,
AND THIS EVIDENCE IS POLICE STRIKE, AND THE OTHER IS ON
CORRELATIONAL STUDIES OF POLICE STRENGTH AND CRIME RATES.
In the event of a police strike, the number of
crimes committed skyrocket almost instantly
as most of the police officers cares less on
their duties (Bradford, 2011). Among other
effects caused when police go on strike
includes fighting in public places and room

The other is evidence from correlational studies of police strength and crime rates
admissions for assaultrelated injuries majorly caused by the reduction in the number of police
officers in charge.
Criminals and other people with evil intention take advantage of a police strike and commit more
crimes and damage leading to more crimes reported on the occurrence of this strikes. The study by
Marvell and Moody (1996), proposed that increasing the number of police officers will cause a
reduction in crimes and thus should be implemented to avoid future crimes from occurring
(Machin, 2011).
Police strength is also another factor that is of paramount important since we can have many police
officers which are weak and thus it will still encourage more crimes. If the criminals outdo the
strength that police officers has then more crimes reported since there is no force that prevents
them from perpetrating their actions. The training that police officer receives is of great
importance and should be conducted with strict rules and high confidential so as to discourage any
challenges that might arise cause of lack of proper training (Sindall, 2013). Some police assign to
certain areas should be identified in advance and by the history of that particular area on the crime
rates. This is crucial in assigning the number of police officers who will be able to man the area
without any challenge.
The number of police assign to man a certain area should be directly proportional to the number of
crimes reported in the area. That is to say, the more the crimes reported then, the more the
number of police officers allocated to that particular region so as to ensure security maintained.
This calls for proper analysis and understanding of different points in the country where the crimes
are prone to happen when allocating the police. The other thing that has arisen from this theory is
that a proper channel of communication devised so as to ensure fasthand information get to the
hands of the police in time.
