Review of shootings by police in England and Wales 1998 to 2001 (PDF)
'Of the 24 cases in the review, 11 occurred in the MPS area of which four were fatal – representing 46% of the shootings included in the review. To assess whether this apparent disproportionality was consistent over time, all police shootings over a longer period were also considered. Between the start of 1991 and the end of 2001, the PCA has supervised 66 shootings causing injury or death, of which 34 (52%) have been in the Metropolitan Police area. This difference is statistically significant as there is less than a one in one thousand likelihood that this is a chance finding, suggesting a consistently higher rate of shootings in the MPS area'
