The number of shootings is roughly the same as the statewide average for the 10-year period measured by The Republic. The number still trails 2018, when Arizona police shot people in 118 different incidents, the most the state had seen in a single year since at least 2011. That year, Phoenix police shot 47 people and had the highest rate of any municipal police department in the country.
