Around 90% of cleared juveniles were for non-burglary robbery, with most of them being for on-the-street robbery. The juvenile rate of persons cleared for non-burglary robbery was around 50%, but the number of juveniles cleared for non-burglary robbery significantly decreased on and after 2004, with the juvenile rate also declining into 30-35%. In contrast to that however, the number of juveniles cleared for burglary robbery used to be small but has been on a slightly increasing trend in recent years.
