This study has been done by Texas State University. There is a poster of the study results from a presentation that is on the wall at the criminal justice building. I will try to get a picture of it to post.

Is this it? https://www.activeattackdata.org/allattacks.html
I've been through some of the ALERRT stuff and thought it was pretty well done.

Thanks, Jeff. That was it. The poster I saw had 2019 added in and says the total as of then was 347 attacks. I don't think the rest of the statistics changed materially. The one really interesting (to me) point was that vehcile attacks remain an aberration but knife attacks, as mass attacks, have been growing fairly steadily since 2013.
