What percentage of crimes are committed by each race?
No US source counts crimes by the race of whoever committed them; what is published is arrests, and 7,138,899 arrests carrying a recorded race were reported to the FBI in 2025. 63.0% of them were of people the arresting agency recorded as White. An arrest is not a crime, not a charge and not a conviction, and nothing counts who committed the crimes nobody was arrested for.
