NYC: Stop-and-Frisks Hit Record in 2011

Posted on February 14, 2012 by pogowasright.org

Sean Gardiner reports:

New York City police officers stopped and questioned 684,330 people last year, a record number since the department started producing yearly tallies of the tactic.

The total marked a 14% increase over 2010, according to statistics viewed by The Wall Street Journal on Monday.

Read more on Wall Street Journal. The report/stats do not indicate whether the increase was across the board throughout the year or is in any way related to the Occupy movement.
