List of killings by police officers in the United States

The lists below include the number of people killed by police officers in the United States. The lists of civilians killed by law enforcement officers are incomplete due to that fact that neither the Attorney General’s office nor the FBI collects statistics on these numbers. These police killings are therefore the lower end of the estimate and unfortunately no one knows how many police killings happen each year.

These lists include both unarmed people of color as well as all other civilians and ethnicities within the United States shot by police.

These lists make no judgments as to who was at fault, innocent or guilty of any action within these killings.
