NYPD On Track To New Stop-And-Frisk Record

Despite aggressive criticism of the stop-and-frisk policy, new statistics show the New York Police Department is on track to stop a record number of people this year.

Police say nearly 138,000 people were stopped and questioned in the third quarter of this year, or 15 percent more from this time last year.

However, only 7 percent of those stopped were given a summons and just 6 percent were arrested.

The New York Civil Liberties Union says if police continue to stop and question people at this rate, 535,000 innocent people will have been stopped this year.
