You're saying blacks and latinos are more likely to give them a reason to search?

They need reasonable suspicion (or consent) for a Terry stop & frisk. So in answer to your question, yes, it appears individuals with those classifications did give them more reason to search.
You could argue their suspicion wasn't reasonable or they illegally used race as a factor. But this data alone doesn't support that argument.
