Stop and frisk: Although whites make up 35% of New York City’s population and committed 2.5% of shootings and 5.5% of violent crimes, based on victim and witness accounts in 2011, they constituted 9% of NYPD stops in 2011 — a higher percentage than the violent crimes with which they were associated

On the other hand, blacks, who make up 23% of the city's population but committed 77% of shootings and 66% of violent crimes, numbered only 53% of NYPD stops — a lower percentage than the violent crimes with which they were associated.
