I thought it was clear. While perhaps not that high, the amount of crime committed by African Americans is much higher than their percentage of the population. For example, Blacks are 17% of the population but commit half of the homicides.

13% of the population meaning black males are about 6% of the population and far more than half the violent criminals.

A more interesting statistic is young black males (say 14 to 35) as a percentage of the population compared to the percentage of crimes they commit.

Those numbers would be mind-blowing.

Blacks make up more than half of homicide and robbery arrests, and much more in the other categories than their percentage of the population should account for.
