Answer: Availability Heuristic

Explanation: Individuals may have to rely on superficial information or ideas in passing certain judgement or decision making. These information could be especially useful when the need to make quick decisions which doesn't allow in depth research or study are required. Decisions or judgement passed using these techniques are made from AVAILABLE HEURISTIC. Due to the superficial nature of information associated with availability heuristic, they tend to be inaccurate when scrutinized.

Therefore, Robert's conclusion might be incorrect but the information he had was enough to give an account of an incident very rampant in his area.
