I am writing to follow up on my original request made on
Thank you very much for providing the information we requested. I am writing to ask for some clarification regarding the data on officer-involved shootings you provided us with. What constitutes an officer-involved shooting in your department? For example, some departments do not count misses while others count all discharges; some include shots at animals. Other departments include intentional and accidental shootings; others do not. Please explain to us how your department classifies the OIS included in the numbers you sent to us.
Very Respectfully,
From: Chesapeake City Police Department

Mr. Nash,
In your last email you asked what constitutes an officer-involved shooting in our department. An officer-involved shooting would constitute one of our officers intentionally shooting at another individual. Accidental discharges and euthanizing an animal is classified as a firearm discharge. Please refer back to our original response that show a breakdown of Officer Involved shootings and Discharge of Firearms.
If I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Deanna
