Whether person was fleeing?

The above visualization is about the distribution of victims by fleeing status. The number of victims who were fleeing by fleeing status is about 60%, while the number of victims who were not fleeing by fleeing status is about 20%. This means that the number of victims who were fleeing by fleeing status is higher than the number of victims who were not fleeing by fleeing status.

This visualization suggests that a majority of the victims of police shootings were fleeing at the time of the shooting. This could be due to a number of factors, such as fear of the police, an attempt to escape arrest, or a mental health crisis.

Analysis on Age Groups of the Victims

From the visualization we can say that the young adults are more likely to be involved in encounters with police than the people aged 40 and over but to a lesser extent than young adults. The young adults are perceived as threatening by police. Also we can say that the young adults are less likely to be able to de-escalate encounters with cops and addition to this these young adults have less resources to defend themselves against police than the aged people around 30 to 40+ adults which include financial resources or social support networks. Coming to people aged 40 and over are at risk of being killed by police. Some people in that age group may be involved criminal activities and few experiencing mental illness that make them vulnerable to police violence.
