Firearm injuries from crime include those caused by interpersonal violence regardless of whether the injured party was the intended target or even a perpetrator. Such injuries can be fatal (homicides) or nonfatal (assaults). Incidents resulting in firearm injury may involve other crimes like robbery and burglary but are referred to as assaults. While injuries other than gunshot wounds can result from crimes involving a firearm, this report focuses on gunshot wounds. No single source of data completely measures firearm injury and deaths from crime. Several sources cover only fatalities while others cover nonfatal injury. To describe firearm injury and death from crime, this report uses data from victim surveys, hospital emergency departments, death certificates, and law enforcement reports on homicides.
