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.

The collection changes as articles are published or updated. Source availability and review can delay coverage. Check the dates on individual reports; this page is not a live dispatch feed or a complete record of local incidents.

How can I find later developments in a case?

Check an article for a dated update or a link to a later report. Some articles include a timeline of available developments. We do not promise complete tracking of every case; an older report may not reflect its current status.

Where does the underlying data come from?

Consult the source information on each article to distinguish an agency statement, another outlet's reporting and any work described as our own. Rewriting a source does not constitute independent confirmation or original reporting.
