SPD Officer Involved Shooting (OIS) Data
Records of Officer Involved Shootings (OIS) from 2005 to the present, including a brief narrative synopsis. Beginning in Q3 2023, the summary will be replaced with a link to the FRB findings documented, prepared for public release. A link for each OIS will be embedded in the file. Data set does not contain records from active investigations. Data is visualized in a dashboard on the SPD public site (https://www.seattle.gov/police/information-and-data/use-of-force-data/officer-involved-shootings-dashboard), please reference as a guide for use. Dashboard is available for download.
Updates are posted twice a year (January and July), as cases complete the inquest process (https://kingcounty.gov/services/inquest-program.aspx).
Use of force data also available here: https://data.seattle.gov/Public-Safety/Use-Of-Force/ppi5-g2bj and is updated daily. Data includes Type III - OIS.
