Description: In this project we study Lethal Police Incidents (LPI) in the Netherlands between 2016-2020, with a specific focus on the ethnic background of the victims. We show – first – that the representation of individuals with minority ethnic backgrounds in LPI is 350% of what would be expected based on their proportion of the population. Comparisons with other indicators (prison population; homicide) showed that the proportion of individuals with minority ethnic backgrounds was particularly high in outcomes that meet two conditions: 1) the outcome is more serious (vs less serious), and 2) the authorities are involved (vs not involved).
