- Unlike other violent crimes, the daily timing of robberies by juvenile offenders peaks in the late evening hours on both school and nonschool days.
- Before 7 p.m., persons are more at risk of becoming an aggravated assault victim of a juvenile offender on school days than on nonschool days (i.e., weekends and all summer days).
- Sexual assaults by juvenile offenders spike at 8 a.m. and noon on both school and nonschool days and at 3 p.m. on school days.
