Abstract: The goal of this new data collection on law enforcement officer use of force is to produce a national picture of the trends and characteristics of use of force by a law enforcement officer (as defined by the Law Enforcement Officer Killed and Assaulted [LEOKA] Program) for law enforcement and the communities they serve. The collection and reporting will include use of force that results in the death or serious bodily injury of a person, as well as when a law enforcement officer discharges a firearm at or in the direction of a person. The data collected will include information on the officers, the subjects, and the circumstances surrounding the incident itself.
