The Long Island Crime Blotter aggregates publicly-available incident reports from the New York State Police, Suffolk County Police Department (SCPD), Nassau County Police Department (NCPD), local outlets, and verified social-media sources. Coverage spans homicide investigations, shootings, stabbings, robberies, burglaries, drug enforcement, sex crimes, fraud cases, and missing-person searches across Nassau and Suffolk Counties.

Every report links to the original police release or news source. We do not publish names of suspects who have only been arrested (no charges filed), and we follow the New York State Press Association guidelines on identifying juveniles and victims. Corrections: corrections@longislandtraffic.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Long Island Crime Blotter?

The Long Island Crime Blotter is a continuously-updated digest of police-reported incidents across Nassau County and Suffolk County. Reports are sourced from the New York State Police, Suffolk County Police Department, Nassau County Police Department, and verified local news outlets including Newsday, News 12 Long Island, Patch, and Daily Voice. Each entry links back to the original release. As of today, we track 770 reports, including 33 added in the past week.

How often is the Crime Blotter updated?

The Crime Blotter is regenerated every 2-4 hours by an automated pipeline. NYSP Troop L blotter PDFs publish daily; SCPD and NCPD press releases publish multiple times per day; news feeds are scanned every 30 minutes. New incidents appear on the blotter within minutes of being picked up by the source feed.

How does a story stay current — for months or years — after the original incident?

Every crime article on this site is connected to a continuously-updating timeline. When the defendant is arrested, charged, released on bail, scheduled for trial, convicted, sentenced, or sued in civil court, the new development is appended to the original article rather than published as a separate post. This means a single canonical URL accumulates the full prosecutorial timeline — arrest, indictment, trial, sentencing, civil suits — across 6 to 24 months. No other Long Island publisher is connecting these events end-to-end at scale.

How can I report a tip or correct a story?

Tips: tips@longislandtraffic.com (also tip line in our /about/ page). Corrections: corrections@longislandtraffic.com — please cite the URL of the article and the specific factual claim. We post corrections inline with the original article and document them in the Updates timeline. For emergencies always call 911. To report a crime anonymously, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS.

What categories of crime does the blotter cover?

We track 12 categories: Homicide, Shootings, Assault & Stabbings, Robbery, Burglary & Theft, Drug Crime, Impaired Driving, Sex Crimes, Fraud & Scams, Missing Persons, Arrests, Other. Each has its own landing page with a category-specific timeline and SEO-targeted intro. Visit /crime-blotter/{category}/ for any of them.

Where does the underlying data come from?

NYSP Troop L daily PDF blotters (state-highway incidents), NCPD CivicPlus press-release feed, SCPD DNN press-release feed, Google News RSS aggregated across LI keywords, News 12 Long Island category feeds, and Patch.com per-community feeds. All sources are publicly available; we re-publish facts (who/what/where/when) with citations and original analysis. No source content is copied verbatim — every article body is an original Scribe enrichment.
