The Scottish Sun 6/5/2020 News The Effect of Suspect Race on Police Officers’ Decisions to Draw Their Weapons Researchers are working to identify appropriate benchmarks for exploring racial bias in the officer-involved shooting (OIS) context.

Using 2017 use-of-force data from the Dallas Police Department, we modeled officers’ decisions to draw their weapons as a function of suspect race and other suspect, officer, and incident characteristics. We benchmarked by limiting analyses to arrest and active aggression cases, thereby excluding interactions in which it was less likely suspects would have had weapons drawn against them. The key finding was that black suspects were no more or less likely to have weapons drawn against them than other suspects.
