Unfortunately, there aren't even any reliable statistics nationally on the numbers of people shot by the police, much less ones that have a break down like that. (Sebbyesque Disclaimer: I could be completely wrong on this, but I seem to recall reading shortly after the Ferguson stuff first broke that the FBI/DoJ deliberately don't keep track of these numbers.)
