1. Name the three (3) different categories of crowds and give an example of each.

,a) Physical crowd
· The physical crowd can also be called a conventional crowd or casual
crowd. They are characterized by density of contact showing no significant
group behavior. The physical crowd has little or no organization, no unity of
purpose, its members come and go, and have no common bond. (Example:
mall or major festival-type event).
b) Psychological crowd
· Is an assemblage of people who have a sustained common interest and
respond emotionally to the same stimuli. (Example: ball game, political
speech, parades, fires, accidents or disturbances)
o Sightseer or sightseeing crowd: This crowd is characterized by their
common bond (a single purpose for being at a certain place). They are
characterized as curiosity seekers, mostly cooperative, and sometimes
anxious to assist. Officers must retain their cooperation while attempting to
disperse them. One must determine an appropriate action. Some groups
may respond to a stern warning or direction, while this same action may set
off another group. The best course of action is to start with diplomacy and
gain their cooperation. Also, taking away the "show" or focal event will
often help this crowd to disperse on its own.
o The expressive or agitated crowd: Are involved in some kind of
expressive behavior, such as a block party or political rally. This type of
crowd is emotionally involved and can easily become agitated if
approached improperly. For the most part, they want to have a good time
or express their point of view. If possible, and as long as there is no breach
of peace, it is best to let the crowd release their energies by permitting
them to express themselves.
§ Expressive or agitated crowds are an unorganized group of people
willing to be led into lawlessness but hesitate to act because it lacks
· Organization
· Courage
· Unity
c) Mob
, · Mob (hostile/aggressive): A mob is a crowd whose members, under the
stimulus of intense excitement and agitation, lose their sense of reason.
They can also lose respect for the sense of order, law, and respect for each
other. This type of crowd is a riot under NC law.
o Escape mob: A highly emotionally charged crowd driven by fright
describes the escape mob. People involved are driven by an overpowering
fright, which creates an emotional, unreasonable, and frantic behavior
driving the crowd to seek safety. This type of mob is extremely difficult to
control because the group, even though together and acting as one, is
interested in individual survival
o The aggressive mob: This is a mob that will attack, riot, and terrorize
others. The aim of the mob is the destruction of property and physical
attacks on persons. The actions of the crowd or the sight of blood often
drives them to a frenzy
o Acquisitive mob: This mob has the desire to acquire something. (Example:
The looting of food or merchandise, the taking or attempting to take an
officer's prisoner.) A prisoner taken by officers in a bar or loud party call
can also be the target of the crowd as they try to regain control of their
peer. When making an arrest, officers must take action to remove prisoners
or other persons in custody as soon as possible to help defuse the focus of
this type of group.
o Expressive mob: An expressive mob is a group expressing intense
feelings or revelry. Usually follows some special event. This type of crowd
can show itself at your local high school football game. This type of mob
can be very destructive.
o Flash mobs: A flash mob is a group of strangers who organize
themselves, using electronic media such as cell phones or the Internet, to
gather together in a public place, behave in a predetermined manner for a
predetermined amount of time, and then quickly disperse.
