Reasons for Crime Reports

I find crime reporting to be more interesting if it is written well. They need to have sympathy, yet mystery. That is unless they already have the crime solved. But if not mystery, is good. All crimes need to fall into the category of, new, unusual, interesting or significant, or about people, because if not, well who's going to read them? However, I don't like when they aren't going in any direction, and when they repeat the same things over and over again. Crime reports need to always have something new and exciting, they can't be dull. The manual made good points about why crime reports are written, what they need, and what category they fall into.
