Police search four times more likely if you are black
Black people are four times more likely than a white person to be searched by officers from England’s second biggest police force, a report has found.
Chief Constable Dave Thompson, the head of West Midlands police, apologised to black communities, admitting that the force was not “free from bias, discrimination or even racism”.
The report, presented to the strategic policing and crime board yesterday by Superintendent Ed Foster and Superintendent Nick Rowe, revealed that black people were also more likely to be subjected to force, such as being restrained or tasered.
