State of Rhode Island, Attorney General Peter F. Neronha ,

Annual Gun Crimes Report

Attorney General Peter F. Neronha annually releases the Office’s statutorily required Gun Crimes Report. The report provides statistics and analysis regarding firearms offenses and describes the Office’s work to fight gun violence and violent crime. The report also provides a summary of recently enacted gun violence prevention laws and the ways in which the Office is using these laws to make Rhode Islanders safer. 

Communities across Rhode Island continue to be affected by firearms-related crime, and the Attorney General remains committed to bringing the full weight of the Office’s investigatory and prosecutorial resources to bear on this issue.
