What Memphis police videos show, and don’t show, about Tyre Nichols beating
< < Go Back
The footage released by Memphis police Friday evening shows the violent confrontation after police stopped Tyre Nichols for an alleged traffic violation on Jan. 7. Nichols died in a hospital on Jan. 10.
The videos, which were edited by police before their release, were shot between 8:24 p.m. and 9:02 p.m. that night. The four clips collectively run about an hour in total.
They include footage from police body cameras at two locations — the intersection of East Raines and Ross roads, where officers approach Nichols’s car, and a residential neighborhood near his home. There is also a clip from a surveillance camera mounted on a pole in the neighborhood.
The Washington Post has reviewed the footage in detail. Here is a description of what each video shows.
