Memphis police are facing increased scrutiny following the death of Tyre Nichols, a black man who was beaten by officers during an arrest on Monday. On Thursday, a sixth officer involved in the altercation was relieved of duty as new details emerge from the incident.

The incident was captured on video by bystanders and shows Nichols being beaten by officers. It has sparked an outcry from the community and calls for police reform.

The sixth officer involved in the altercation was relieved of duty on Thursday. Memphis police have not released the officer’s name or any information about their involvement in the incident.

The video of the incident has been widely shared on social media, but there are still several unanswered questions. Five things the videos don’t show are the officers’ initial contact with Nichols, the events that led up to the altercation, the officers’ use of force, the officers’ commands to Nichols, and the extent of Nichols’ injuries.

The Memphis Police Department has launched an internal investigation into the incident. The FBI is also conducting an independent investigation into the death of Tyre Nichols.
