I'm pretty sure that's still the case in the US as well. The Wire mentions it as a fact.
"Not a stat legally required to be recorded in many states" makes it sound like it would get mentioned in reports of gun firings, but they wouldn't then have to collate that information, come up with a total or publish or store the stat somewhere.

Just a quick search, knew it was California, couldn’t remember if Texas did or did not. The answer is they are supposed to but suck at it. So… 2/50 require reporting when a cop kills someone.
