• Washington Post Police Shooting Dataset.
  • Upon analyzing the Washington Post Police Shooting dataset, these are the questions that I came up with:

• • • Which day/month/year had the most casualties?
    • Which age group had the most casualties?
    • How does the age distribution of female casualties differ from the male ones?
    • How many of the victims were armed/unarmed?
    • Which race had the most casualties?
    • Which city/state had the most casualties?
    • How many fled the scene? How did they flee?
    • How many victims presented signs of mental illnesses?
    • Which police department had the most casualties?

It is worth noting that some columns contain null values which could potentially disrupt the data analysis process and other machine learning techniques.
