LNE (Low Number Event) - numbers are not reported when there were more than zero and fewer than five events during the reporting period.
Note that "Total" data includes all racial and ethnic categories (not
just black and white) and thus may be larger than the sum of the two
racial categories presented here. Data for other racial and ethnic
groups were not reported here due to the small number of events in most
parishes.
