Looking into the police shootings database, I decided to look into correlation of police shootings to individuals who don’t flee or do flee (either by car, foot or other scenarios).
I decided to check the percentage of the total amount of reported shootings to see how many people flee or don’t flee.
From the database, we have an overall population size of 7803 people reported being shot by police and 4358 of the people are shot by not fleeing.
These can be represented by a bar graph and we can determine the percentage of people in these categories:
We can see that 63% of the population are killed by not fleeing, 18% by car, 14% by foot and 4% by other scenarios.
For next week, we will determine the average age of people who flee in these categories and plot histograms of each one.
