Query Violent Gang/Terrorist Organization

A specific inquiry, the query group transaction is directed to the gang/terrorist reference data file only. Inquiries may be made using group name and subgroup name. When inquiring using group name and subgroup name, NCIC will return records based on exact character match. However, if the city and state designator code is not specified in the group name and/or subgroup name field, NCIC will only match characters up to the asterisk.

For example:

•      If the QGG contained GNG/BLOODS*LRAR only records with GNG/BLOODS*LRAR would be returned.

•      If the QGG contained GNG/BLOODS, NCIC 2000 would return any records containing BLOODS, e.g., GNG/BLOODS*LRAR, GNG/BLOODS*OCFL, GNG/BLOODS*MIFL, etc.
