La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar el perfil de los delincuentes que cometen delitos leves de hurto en la ciudad de Barcelona, en función del hurto cometido, ya sea comercial o personal. La muestra fue extraída de diligencias policiales de la Guardia Urbana de Barcelona. Se han estudiado 56 delitos de hurto leve, con un total de 71 delincuentes. Los resultados revelan que los delincuentes comúnmente son hombres, adultos jóvenes, extranjeros, que actúan de manera individual (o grupal en el caso de los más jóvenes), con domicilio en Barcelona y antecedentes penales de reincidencia en el hurto, además de versatilidad criminal para cometer también otro tipo de delitos. Se hallan diferencias en función de si el hurto es comercial o personal. Se concluye que los hurtadores comerciales son más planificados y premeditados, mientras que los personales son más oportunistas y dependen en mayor medida del azar. Finalmente, este estudio facilita la toma de decisiones en el trabajo policial para la prevención del delito, considerando las características y el comportamiento de los delincuentes según el tipo de hurto.
