Table 6. Race/Ethnicity distribution of bases for search in searches conducted by California law enforcement, 2023

Note: Each stop with a search can include more than one basis for search. Bases for search that accounted for at least one percent of all stops with searches are included. Twelve stops in which a search was conducted did not have any bases for search indicated. The sum of race/ethnicity group percentages in each row may be more or less than 100 due to rounding. “Parole/Probation/Postrelease Community Supervision (PRCS)/mandatory supervision” capture all searches that were conducted because a person was on one of these forms of post-conviction supervision.
