Ayon kay Danao, sa limang distrito ng NCRPO ang Manila Police District ang may pinakamataas na bilang ng naarestong wanted persons na may 373.
Sa naturang bilang, 138 ang most wanted persons, 26 district wanted persons, 112 station wanted persons at 97 iba pang wanted persons.
Sinundan naman ito ng Southern Police District na may 318; Northern Police District, 174; Eastern Police District, 108.
