CORRIGENDUM

Examining the impact of the Freddie Gray unrest on

perceptions of the police

In White, Weisburd, and Wire (2018), the authors wish to correct the footnote 4 to:

The initial threshold for violent and drug crime was 18 drug calls and 19 violence-related calls, respec-

tively (approximately the top 2.5% of segments in the city for each category). Although, this was the

final threshold for the combined violent and drug crime hot spots, to meet sampling goals for streets

that were hot spots of violence or hot spots of drug crime the threshold was reduced to 17 violent

calls and 16 drug crime calls respectively (approximately the top 3% of all city street segments in that

category). We also required that streets evidence drug or violent crime throughout the year by setting

a criterion that calls be spread across at least 6 months. In our sampling frame of residential streets

(4,630), 284 were classified at violent crime hot spots, 248 as drug crime hot spots, 98 as combined

drug and violent hot spots, and 4,000 were comparison street segments.

We apologize for this error.
