Incorrect WRT the injury stat. You're looking at the total stats for 10 years, not any single year.
Actually I just realized I made the same mistake for killings by police (1111 is a _one year_ count for citizens, whereas 505 is a _ten year count_ for police. In reality you had about _21 times_ the odds of being killed by the police in an interaction).
There were 1,950 firearm assaults on the police by a criminal and an injury percentage of 9.4% by firearms in 2014. That gives ~183 injuries [1].
