abstract="Common in the literature are discussions of the dangerousness of the police occupation. In particular, numerous studies have examined the circumstances surrounding the murder and assault of police officers. Relatively little is known, however, about how these dramatic events fit into the larger context of police injury incidents. This article reports the results of analyses based on 2,073 officer injury incidents (reports) gathered from a large U.S. midwestern municipal police department. Findings and implications are discussed.<p />",
